How many miles did you run today? - Page 519

The thermometer on my front porch read 64º as I stepped off at about the same time this morning. I figured I probably will not get another morning this nice for running for a while so I kept on going and ended with a couple of blocks short of an impromptu half marathon.

And, five hours later, it has dropped to 49 degrees.

What a great run you had!

Little over 5 today at recovery pace.

3.5 this morning in DC. Very warm here.

This morning, 4 miles. The temperature (wind chill) was 21 degrees. In contrast to yesterday morning when it was 60 degrees.

I got in 7.5 miles today... on a treadmill.

I run about 3 miles a day. I'm considering switching to Vibram's Five-Fingered Series. I've read that it takes a few weeks to adjust to the shoes, but I'm excited. Has anybody used them before? What do you think of them?

bad idea. you don't run enough to have strong enough muscles to support yourself in them. I think that you risk injury. If you must, get a pair and rotate it with real running sneakers for 6-12 months to build strength before using them exclusively. Use them on grass, track, sparingly on road.

5.5 miles for me today.

7.4 miles today.

4.6 miles this afternoon.

5 this AM, first run in a week, and I am going NUTS.
Working at the running store is paying off,
Got free nike structures, nike lunarglides, Mizuno Wave Riders and Brooks Pureflow this week.
I will try and post reviews if anything is really good or really bad.
Enjoying my rest.

A few weeks ago I picked up a pair of track spikes to kick myself in the tail a bit, have been running 200m repeats and it's been yielding results - at the very least I'm enjoying the Thursday session much more than I used to. Anyway, today I decided to run alternating 45/60 200m intervals and see how long I could sustain it. After a few hiccups I ended up hitting the pace consistently, stopping after 30 minutes because I had to hurry up and get home to start getting ready.

4.3

5K with some cross training.

I called it an early day at the office and decided to get in about 8 miles this afternoon.
