Well, I finally recieved my new running shoes Thursday, no better time than to break them in on Friday at lunch. I ended up running 3.1 miles in 36:25, about 8 minutes off my best effort, about 7 minutes from my average. It's been a long summer, the last race I ran was back in June, which was the Picnic Island adventure race (3.6 miles, 96F, 49 minutes). I never felt more like death than at that race. Since then I had taken two nasty spills on my bike, my left knee is still a little sore from the first fall, so 36:25 is better than not...
I also signed for 2 of the 4 fall runs I usually do. I added a new one to the mix. October 2nd, Ana and I will be doing the Komen Suncoast Breast Cancer 5K, on October 9th I'll be doing the Tampa police 5K, and then on November 5th I'll be doing Richard's run for life. After that I am still trying to decide what to do, but I am pretty sure doing the Santos 42mile "epic" ride will be a part of it.
