Today starts the beginning of week 4 in my half marathon training and I have to say I am feeling great!! O.k. maybe not right at the moment but for the most part I am killing it! I say that I am not feeling so great right now because I am having some back soreness. I so don't want to admit it, but I think it is my shoes.....the Brooks Pureflows. I have only been wearing them on short runs of 2-3 miles but I am finding that they just don't feel quite right and I have been feeling a few more aches and pains after I run in them. But I sooo wanted these shoes and wanted to be able to have a pair of shoes to use to avoid putting all of my training miles on my sauconys so that I would not need new shoes before the big race! It was to be a perfect plan....until it started not working to well. It is looking more and more like they will be come gym shoes.
This weeks events: Monday: Gym
Tuesday: 2 miles
Wednesday: Gym
Thursday: 6 miles
Friday: Rest
Saturday: 2 miles
Sunday: 7 miles
Now to see if Miss Mother Nature is going to cooperate with me for my Thursday run....
So until next time, having good running shoes is important, keep running and stay strong.
