Week 7: Day 1

Today I found some goodies at a small shop near B.'s office. We stopped at Starbucks (alright, it's convenience at it's worst) and he pointed out the store next door. I ended up buying two much needed running tops - one short-sleeved and one long-sleeved. I love walking through small running shops. They bring back so many memories of high school and college. I also love supporting these shops. Sure, they are typically priced a bit higher than a larger store or something you can find online, but if you like the intention behind the business, then why not pay that extra bit to support them? It looks like they have a fairly strong running community program going on in Louisville - totally a fan! I'd love to get involved with something around Boulder like this, but my commuting pretty much takes that option out of the picture. Anyway, back to the shirts... I wore one on my run! Yay!

Byrdie and I ran part of Big Bluestem again today. My arch was tender during the first 15 minutes of the run, and so instead of running the whole Bluestem loop like I planned, I just went out to the second gate (downhill first) and back. After my foot warmed up, I wished I would have continued around the loop, but now that I'm back home I'm glad I didn't push any more. Sore! I'm thinking that I might need to do some biking for a couple of days since my foot hasn't been recovering between runs. Good thing B. got that Cycleops together. :)

Total:
Running: 41 minutes
