2.5 up w/ strides, 3x1200 meters 300 meters jogging recovery, 2.5 down. I almost didn't do a run at all today. I had to get up early for work for the 2nd day in a row and I couldn't get myself to wake up super early two days in a row. Then I took the kids swimming in the afternoon because I got off work early. So I was tired before even starting but decided I would give it a go and do what I could. I was hoping to do more than 3 but something was better than nothing. I did these barefoot on the grass at the park by my house again. It was just over 80 degrees when I ran them at 8:00 p.m. so it was still very warm. Splits were: 3:40, 3:42, 3:47.
On a happy note, I got my first pair of trail running shoes that I have ever had in the mail today. I found some Kinvara trail shoes on sale for $36.99 w/ free shipping and so I decided to give them a try. I warmed up and cooled down in them tonight just to break them in a little before I do a big long trail run in them on Saturday. I'm excited about them and I think I'm really going to like them. If anyone else is interested I found them on 6pm.com that it where I buy all my running shoes.
