Weather - 81 degrees, sunny. Ran 1.5 miles to the arboretum, then 3.75 miles barefoot around the grass loop. That is the longest I have run without shoes. My breathing was excellent today. I ran most of the barefoot miles at 7:15 pace, and it felt effortless. Quads were somewhat sore from the 2 consecutive hard days, so I will run short and easy days until my legs feel better. One bad thing about todays run, when I was running quickly through the grass the top of my left foot felt weak, and I had to slow down. It could be a sore tendon. I will have to keep a close watch, if it continues to feel weak I will cut out hard workouts until it is healed. #255
