Today was pretty good, I think I was a bit slower today. My shins were a bit achy, I think it's time for new shoes. They have about 490 miles on them. Good thing it's pay day this Friday. :)

Marion, just hope my shins can hope out til pay day :( Will take is slow on them til I get new shoes.

One bad thing about upping my miles is having to buy shoes more often. I don't know how Sasha and some of the others here on the blog can put so many miles on their shoes. I can usually feel in in my bodu around 400 miles. Then I know I need new ones.

Ihave heard to that the more pairs you have, the more mile you can put on them. The theory goes like this. The "magic" springy shoe stuff takes 24-48 hours to fully recover from a run. If you run on it before it is fully recoverd it degrades the shoe faster. So there is the "theory" :D
