Kept the slower pace but upped the miles.

7.35 @ 10:15 in 76 degrees & 95% humidity

The humidity almost did me in. My body was screaming at me to stop at 6 but I pushed through. Wouldn't have been able to at faster pace.

my sophomore was timed for a 2 mile for his cross country team last night. he did ok -- 10:39. he's been getting over mono since like june. he was happy, but wanted to break the 10:30 mark. he didn't, and so he went to bed hungry last night (dinner's for winners).

a senior on his team that won the state championship last year finished with an 8:58 and with plenty left in the tank. LOL.

Another 7.35 @ 10:15. Almost identical to yesterday. Not a bad back to back given the ungodly humidity.

The mark of a great performance running shoe.

I want to try a different brand next, but I dig my Saucony’s

[Chris_H_2]

y'all ever get any hoka's? my kid just got a pair and they're light af.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

I’d kinda like to try them, but not sure they’d have enough support. If they weren’t so dang expensive I’d be more willing to risk that

i've got two pair (clifton 7 and 8), and i don't even run. they're very comfortable.

most comfortable sneakers i've ever owned.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

Someone buy me a pair

[doug rr]

most old people I know that spend a lot of time on their feet wear either hoka's or crocs..I've never had a pair of hoka's but I am intrigued

[lennytheweedwhacker]

Just no On Cloud. I have an irrational hatred of looking at them.

I went for a run today.
