Good to finally be back at Wofford!! I didn't want to leave home but now that I am here I am super glad to be back. Long run with my girls. They did like an hour, and then I added on till I got to 90 minutes, with the last 15 fast. 8:08 avg pace, with the last 2 miles at 7:21 and 7:15.
I went to Dick's to try and buy some new trainers for before I got back to Wofford, but the smallest size they had was a 6.5 and I wear a 5.5-6. I know that's not a big difference at all but I figured if I'm paying tons of money for a pair of shoes, they better fit perfectly. Plus who knows, maybe half a size is enough to give blisters or something. In any event, they'll be here in 3-6 business days. This is my first go-round at Nike's (and first time not getting Brooks in years) which I never really took seriously as distance running shoes. But the Zoom Structure 18's were fire, and have had really good reviews in the running world, so I'm giving them a shot. Hopefully the stability features will help with the way my arches make me want to cry every day after I run...
