I was originally going to look for running shoes tonight and run tomorrow (Friday) but the weather was nice, the body was willing and so I went out anyway and did a 5K run on the Brunette River trail.
As is usually the case with shorter runs, my time was a good bit faster, with my average pace 4:46/km. As a bonus my left foot normally doesn’t start to really sing until the 5 km mark, so it only made its presence known just as I was wrapping up.
I drooped a little after the first 2 km–something that tends to happen more often than not so far this year–but recovered and improved my pace for the rest of the run.
There’s not much to add. It was quick, relatively comfortable and helped work off the guilt of eating an apple fritter. Mmm, apple fritter.
I still hate my shoes, though.
