Notes
Had a nice relaxing run out to McBaine with Dan H. starting at 6:15 am and sun coming up on the way out. I slept poorly, but felt pretty good. He was hoping for 8:30 or better pace. I just wanted to get some miles at a relaxing pace. I ended up 0.23 mi more due to difference in GPS so that helped my pace. This was a good run to get some miles before next week and not too fast. It was a little warm and we did stop for a little water along the way and I kept the watch running.
My biggest issue with this run was my shoes. I wore a pair of my trail shoes and I could feel sand between my toes. I've only worn these shoes once but it was for my 100 miler in June. I remember going through some sand so I guess it didn't all wash out with the garden hose. Also, the right 4th toe was rubbing a bit on top for some reason which has never been a problem. Maybe sand? Made a note not to wear these next weekend and I think I am going to run them through the washer and let them air dry.
