It was time for a change. I was getting so tired of the look of this site, so here is something new and exciting! I have also been a slacker in regularly writing more frequently, so I am going to try to change this as well. I have lots to cover. In the next fews posts, I will blog about some new running shoes I am using, upcoming races I am doing, and finally, I will be talking about some entrepreneur and startup things.
So how has the running been going? Well, I had some setbacks. After a trip to Disney and walking 9 miles a day in some worn out shoes, I found myself suddenly dealing with a foot problem that made it very hard to run. On top of that, I am signed up for the Shamrock Half Marathon one week from tomorrow! So I had plans for this to be my fastest race, but missing a couple big runs might make that difficult now.
Blaming my foot injury on the old pair of shoes is purely speculation. But it got to the point that my foot would feel better when not wearing them and quickly hurt again when I wore them. So at least in part, they are to blame. I also had 300+ miles on my running shoes, and for a 200+ pound guy, that’s a lot of miles.
The good news is that I have run 1-2 miles the past few days without pain. So on Sunday, I am planning to go 9 miles. I will report back on how that run went, as well as catch everyone up on the new shoes I am using, on startups, entrepreneur things, etc.
