Run Report for the Week Ending September 20

| 0 Comments | 0 TrackBacks
I had a good week's worth of runs book ended by a 12 miler and a 16 miler. I've cut down on the weight training and increased my time hitting the pavement to build up for Philly. The extra running plus the change in diet is helping me lean out. This paid off with a 7:30/mile pace during my 16 miler.

One cause for concern is this recent pain in my left foot. It's right in front of my heel and seems to be deep, like it's coming from the bone. It started a few weeks back and became more pronounced this last week. There's no discoloration it just hurts. Hopefully it's just something to work through.

I've been using Sue's Shuffle for my runs lately since my second Nano also failed. I must admit I did not mind running with the Shuffle at all. It's light and clips right on to my shorts. The only drawback was my inability to track mileage using my Nike+.

The folks at Target were great. They took it back without hesitation and replaced it with a new one. In fact, I got the latest Nano, equipped with FM Radio and video camera. More importantly for me, I can now continue tracking my milage with my Nike+.
