Well, today the team tackled 15. I would be lying if I said that it wasn’t challenging, but I lived to tell about it. The time through the first hour of these long runs keeps passing quicker and quicker, which is certainly encouraging. Also, after a good team meeting, we were all on the same page as far as pace was concerned and we weren’t trying to crush any world records. This week, I had to miss my first workout due to some significant pain in my right foot that felt like it could possibly be a stress fracture. I dropped some serious coin at Johns Run/Walk shop on some new kicks and ran in them today and found that the part of my foot that had been bothering, wasn’t too bad, however, I did have some aggrevating pain in that right arch. Hopefully, that is just me getting used to the new shoes. Well, I feel alright now. The arch is still a little tender and my right knee is acting a little funny, but I suppose the true guage of this workout is how I come out of it tomorrow after a good nights sleep. Anyway, good job, team and good luck to David and Greg Bat-magen tomorrow.
7 weeks down, 9 to go!
