Notes
Not a great day. I was going to do a tempo but got started a little quick in the new shoes. After 2 miles I switched into the old ones (Glide with orthodics) and it felt insanely weird. I did another 5 laps in those and then stopped. I think I might need to just switch to neutral shoes and not go back and forth between them--it threw me off a ton. After the tempo part I tried to salvage it with some 800s, but got through one in the Kinvaras and got frustrated, so I left. Maybe I'll get some more cushioned neutral shoes tomorrow so I can go to all neutral, with the Kinvara minimalist ones and some with a little stronger base for long stuff. We'll see!
Despite the frustration, I'm sure this is going to be great for my legs to get out of the orthodics that I don't need anymore and into neutral. It sounds like that might help my shin pain go away!!
