Comments:
Wore my pinkish ASICS shoes. They felt good as soon as I put them on. My feet were sore when I woke up this morning. My achilles felt tight. I have been running in my Mizuno Wave Inspires. However, as soon as I put my ASICS on, my feet felt different/better. I'm wondering if some of my soreness I feel in my feet might be partially due to my shoes. Hmm.

Update:
My knee was really bugging me after Friday's 10 mile long run. It hurt when bending going down stairs and felt stiff. I looked at my mileage and it looks like I upped quite a bit, so maybe I have done "too much too soon".

On Friday after the run I saw my family (Aunt Joan, Uncle Bruce, Brian, & David) at their family's home, Kent & Liz. Brian and I then went to the Green Mill. I drank water and go plenty of sleep on Friday night.

Then next day on Saturday 7/30, I decided to rest and not run due to how my knee was feeling. I went downtown with mom, and we walked all around. My knee was feeling better than it had on Friday night, although I still felt it a bit when going down stairs. I'm hopeful that the day of rest/no running on Saturday will be enough rest for my knee. I think I am going to plan to run a few miles on Sunday to see how it feels.
