Country Running

This past week has been finals at SDSU.  Although I was not hammered with finals, I did get hammered with a thesis proposal and numerous softball games I announced.  Miles were few and far between.

I finally worked up enough nerves to talk with Rod, the SDSU CC coach, about his suggestions on shoes.  Going to Dunhams just doesn't cut it for me.  Rod thought I may be overpronating when I run and suggested the Nike Structure Triax.  I was slightly disappointed because I like the Nike Frees.  Oh well.  Later that day I ordered the Structure from athletics.  Sweet deal and hopefully sweet product.

Today, however, I decided to end my semester with a nice long run in the country side.  I mapped it out and decided to do an endurance/check run.  I wasn't sure it was going to go well because I have had issues with my knee and only ran once earlier this week… I need new shoes like I said.  But the 10.5 miles went well.  I only stopped twice to stretch me knee and took it pretty easy.  I realize I need to push myself harder, but that will come once I feel okay with my knee.

Keep up the good work everyone and good luck Foseroo with your 5K in a week :)
