I seem to have a knack for barely missing the club run. As I pulled into the parking lot, I saw the group leaving, so I hurried to put on my shoes and sprinted after them. (At least, I went the way I thought they were going...) I guess not, because I never ran into anybody. Anyway, it was just as well since my run was most non-triumphant today. My foot was killing me the entire time, so I just ran fast to get back to the store ASAP. I didn't have my watch with me, so my distance is just an estimate from time (about 44 minutes). (Alchemy 404)

Since my foot is a wad-o-crap that hurts, I spent the time I would've spent running more miles trying on and buying a pair of new shoes. It was really hard to tell if the shoe fit right because my foot hurt, but after driving Anna crazy, I finally decided on the Saucony Omni 5 with the Blue Superfeet inserts. Next time I will not wait so long to get new shoes when I notice mine breaking down. Hopefully. Haven't yet decided whether to take off tomorrow for my foot to recover a bit or not. We'll see how I feel in the morning.

Take the whole weekend off - you'll survive. And the foot (and your running as a whole) will be much more thankful for it.

I am sorry we missed you! Dave was excited to get the run going. Take the weekend off and eat up and rest the body!

Hopefully no post today means that you're giving your foot a rest. I hope it gets better soon!!!!
