I Need New Shoes

I ran 4 miles today from Megan's school after I dropped her off. Lots of hills! About 3/4 of a mile into the run I got a wicked case of shin splints. I'm thinking I'm gonna have to spring for those new shoes sooner rather then later.

It didn't feel too good, but I kept at it and I'm glad I did. Another great average pace (for me) for today of 12:11 ... over 4 miles ... whoohoo!!! Now I just need to decide if I'm gonna make it out tomorrow morning or not?!?

Running Stats

Running Time: 48:48
Running Distance: 4.01 mi
Average Pace: 12:11/mi

On the Pain Front ... shin splints, sore hip and a sore core (pilates related). Buying new shoes tomorrow ... hope that helps!

Yearly Tally: 7.01 mi

  1. Oh yes... definitely time for new shoes! I've stopped buying mine at regular shoe stores and now I go to a proper running store. They watch how you walk (or run) and get you all set up with what you need for your feet, gait, etc. Let us know what you end up with, OK?
