Time for new kicks


After 330 plus miles on the Frees I figured it was time for a new pair. Decided to change up the color, the Black ones looked fast so I wnet for those. Not sure how fast they will be under my creaky ankle but we will see. Training is going well, have a few 16.5 mile long runs under my belt as well as some 10 mile tempo runs which seem to be helping my pace. I was altering shoes but since the Frees have been feeling so good I am sticking with them for all runs.

I would like to see the Kenyans run in this.


So yesterday we got nailed with over two feet of snow. The roads were a mess and the trains shut down so I decided to work from home. Around noon I figured i would get a quick run in. With the storm still going strong and the roads barely plowed it turned out to be the longest eight miles I have run in a while. Sometimes my dad will say to me that he is losing his mind, after running in those conditions I feel like he is not alone.
