Training is going well. We’re still doing the program in the The Non-Runner’s Marathon Trainer
Yesterday, we bought new shoes. I got the New Balance 607 Shoes:
and Liz got the Asics Gel Kahana Trail Running Shoes:
Our new shoes are a lot more comfortable than the old ones (which were themselves very comfortable before we had run several hundred miles in them). The new ones are like running on clouds. Okay, not quite that comfortable, but they feel good.
This morning, we got up early and went to the park to do our long run for the week (7 miles this week). The run was fun and quick, and naturally, I stepped in dog poop in my brand new shoes. Why was it on the running trail? Oh well.
