Recovery run from yesterday's butt kicking on the oval. Found out I got a year contract with Pearl Izumi for this year. A little nervous now because I've never run in their shoes. I have to make a decision by next week. I am in a friendly competition with my friend Leslie of accountability to run six times a week and other personal goals in my life and it is fun. If she doesn't post by 6 pm I call her and vice versa. It's good to force myself out and get in the habit again. She wants to qualify for Boston so she won't be left out in 2015. It's going to be an awesome party then. This year will be a blast as well.  Lots of great things going on when you set goals and have friends to help you on the way.

I took Bailey and Boston to the oval and did a slow warm up  1.5 miles with them. Then I did a 3 mile tempo in Pearl Izumi M3 shoes that I'm trying to sample to see if I want to sign a year contract for. I jogged 5 minutes and switched to the Pearl Izumi N1 and it was pretty drastic drop. A little more drop than the Khivaras.  Called the rep and told her to send me the docs. I think I'm in.  A couple more runs and I'll make my decision.

Was a busy day all the way up to 9:30 pm.  Leslie called me because I hadn't checked in with her on her miles so I had to be accountable. Lol it was super slick. Run in the deeper snow on the slide walk was a better decision. A blah 5 put out.
