On This Day I Can Run...So I Will!

Three miles on Rosewick Rd.  This road has a good hill on it.  Out and back by 6:45, before the sun got hot.  

I have some weird feet.  My left foot overpronates and my right foot underpronates.  My left foot is flat and my right foot has a good arch.  I buy inserts to support my arch but it is too much for my left foot (flat foot).  It causes me to strike on the outside and heel of my foot which makes my foot sore after running.  Today I replaced the insert of my left foot with the insert that comes with the shoe (not the additional arch support I use on the right foot).  My foot isn't sore and it felt more comfortable.  I'm going to try it again with my tempo run this week.  Hopefully it doesn't mess with my knee.  

AP:  10:17

Spinning today!  I got up at 4:15am because I couldn't sleep so I had time for a cup of coffee before class (starts at 5:30).  The coffee really seemed to improve my stamina.  Great workout!

Had time this morning for Boot Camp and my run.  Boot Camp was upper body with weights and core work.  Found a great treadmill at the gym that has a decline option.  Ran 5 miles with 4 miles at 9:30 pace temp (on incline).  

I can use this treadmill for my Ragnar training.  Once I find out which part of the trail I'll be running, I can look up the topography on the site and mimic it with the treadmill.  

Three easy miles on the treadmill at the gym.  Too humid outside with the hurricane lurking off the coast.  I am going to do my long run tomorrow instead of Saturday because I'm going out of town.  Its supposed to be a lot less humid and cooler tomorrow.  I definately plan on doing an outside run with some hills. 

Ten miles on Rosewick.  Nice cool, breezy morning from the hurricane passing by.
