Good Week of Running

The week started off a little rocky with rain. I had to run the treadmill on Sunday, I hit two miles but I ran in an old pair of shoes. Having to run in shoes on a treadmill is awful. Thursday and Wednesday were spent out of town for my son's birthday but I ran early on Tuesday morning at the park. I finished out the week on Thursday and Saturday and hit 8.8 miles this week. A weekly increase of 2.1 miles.

The next week looks promising to hit a 3 mile run by the end of the week and the weathers looks good most of the week. I am still having tenderness in my calves later in the day after a run. When I sit down for a few minutes and then get up they are really sore and tender until I get moving. Tomorrow is 80% chance of rain so I will have a day off to let the calves rest.

I would have to say I really enjoy using the minimal running shoes. It is much more enjoyable than running in normal running shoes. I am looking to purchase some water shoes tomorrow and try them out Monday or Tuesday. I'll write a review next weekend.
