First non-Newton run in a while. My alignment and overall posture seems to have improved after a week in the Newtons. I was able to maintain better form with more consistent foot strike than normal in my Mizunos.

The one thing I did notice was a slight wobble at the ankle on some footfalls. That could be due to the fact that my left one is still a little off after my detour through a pothole last week - or some supportive feature in the Newtons that isn't present in my other shoes...

    You are really rocking these days - I love it! The Newtons have been treating you well, and all the base building you did before getting into your focused training cycle is paying off as well. Keep it up!

    Thanks Paul!
    Hey Caleb. Thanks for the kind words and the encouragement. I'm hoping to stay healthy through the next couple of months and have a good time on race day. Your training has been real inspiration - looking forward to your Boston prep. How your 2:53 legs feeling?
