Felt good after 2 days off.  Sometimes it needs to be done...

Hill workout on Rainbow.  Different to last time.  This time it was an 800 metre loop with 90 second recovery.  We did 6 loops then 2 x backwatds and 2 x sprints...but the backwards/spints were much longer than normal so it all evened out.

Liking the transition to Brooks so far.  They simply have more room in the toe box than the saucony's.  My right little toe was getting a little smushed in the Saucony's...and that was even after I tried a pair 1/2 size up, which were a little loose in general.  The brooks are a little spongy at first, but that soon goes away.

Strange run this morning.  Started with the group for a Fartlek on the trail.  However, it was very dark on the trail and got a little spooked when almost took a tumble due to a part of the tral being cut up....and I wasn't running hard.  I just didn't fancy pushing it so headed home early.
