Rare Run

June 9, 2015 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: Hot

Comments:
I can't remember any other training run I've done that doesn't end back where it started. It was kind of disorienting. My cousin and I got new shoes at Chevy Chase Running, went home, and quickly thereafter ran. The shoes felt a little bit strange compared to my old Brooks (they seem to be a bit more geared to a toe striker). but hopefully the cushioning will wear to my striking. Besides that they feel great. My breathing felt fine on the whole fun, but my arms and thighs got surprisingly tired on some very small hills, just reminding me that I have a ways to go before I'm back to where I was. We went down Legation st to Connecticut, turned right on Nebraska, and turned off at Ward Circle to the AU track, where we met my brother (he wanted to run with us--this was our solution) and the three of us ran three laps. He kept up nicely. Today was a lot hotter and much more difficult than yesterday, but that just means it was more satisfying.
