Finally, new shoes, and as an added bonus (something which truly only I would care about) I managed to do so right as my yearly mileage ended in a 0 so that’s easier to track. (Plus a new month so it was also at 0, but of course that will change for June.) Otherwise not much to report; damp and misty bordering on (but not quite) a drizzle. Ended up running sans glasses for the second portion because it became useless to have them on.

Too hot/humid, should have started earlier. You know things are going bad when not only did everyone in the group agree to cut the run short from the planned 10 mile distance, but my self-conscious nature completely melted and for the last two miles I went sans shirt in an effort to feel vaguely less awful.

Could it be that the summer absences are coming to an end? Ben, Justin, Jerry, Steve, and I were all there for an 8-miler; over Roosevelt Bridge and then back over 14th St Bridge.

Gorgeous, gorgeous morning… 67 degrees! (Alas, we haven’t had our first sighting of a 6am shirtless runner yet.) Also, after years of running in the Brooks Addiction (and 14 years of Brooks in general) I’ve tried out a new pair of shoes: the Saucony Omni 12. So far, so good.

Ran with Steve, Stephanie, and Armand. Not a bad morning, aside from a very cold wind that would whip up on occasion. Brrrr.

Skipped Monday’s run due to a combination of DST grogginess and (more importantly) getting a lungfull of dust on Sunday afternoon, which I’m highly allergic to. Spent the rest of Sunday and a lot of Monday kind of sick.

Anyway, could’ve knocked out 6 today but I’ve got a Saturday race so decided to take it a little easy. Just me and Steve this morning, and it was a good solid run.
