I got a late start today...but I did get some better sleep so I think that helped. My right shoe has been getting a hole inside the heel. It was bugging the other day, so I taped up the hole with some cloth tape, well that did not help, in fact it made it worse! I have a big bloody heal now :( Also I need to start taking gels or something with me on my longer runs, my breakfast only lasted til about mile ten.

Nice run Lori! Sorry about the heel :( That's a bummer :( Your paces look great :D I like to take stuff on any run over 10 in the winter.

Great job on the miles! That's too bad about your heel. And it looks like those are your newer shoes too.

I like the Sport Beans and take them on long runs. But I know someone who prefers gels because she says she can't chew while she's running.

Thanks ladies, I hope that my heel will feel better by Monday. I guess I will need new shoes even though there are not that many miles on them. :( Guess it's time to start stocking up on some gels and other things. When you get to +10 miles it seems like you need some extra nutrition.

A hole in the shoe? Time to go shopping! Nice run. Don't worry too much about the empty tank -- sometimes it stimulates larger mitochondria to run out of gas a little.

My fav's are the strawberry shot bloks. The jels make me gag :p
