First run with new Nike Free Run+shoes. Felt great at first, but eventually the sides of my feet started killing me. I feel like they're a little small, so hopefully they'll stretch out a bit. I... read more

blah Haddon Twp Turkey Trot 3.11 mi 00:26 08:20 pace
Had a good time at the race with my brother and friends, but wasn't too happy with my time. Got to put in more miles next year. Weather was gorgeous!

alright Speed Workout 3.29 mi
Tons of respect to all the Philly Marathon runners today. Seemed like a nice day for it. My big 5K race of the year is this Saturday, so I'm looking for a PR.

alright Leland Palmer 3.03 mi 00:27 08:52 pace
First run after a cold and a rough couple of travel days. Felt ok, but cramped up in the middle. Getting cold out there!

blah Speed Workout 3.29 mi
Felt fine running, but my feet are starting to really hurt from these sprint workouts + front striking. 2:59 3:12

RUN
great Donna Hayward 3.32 mi 00:28 08:28 pace
My 2nd run since my rainy speed workout a week ago. Ever since I started front striking I've been getting blisters on my toes, but they don't hurt too much. Hopefully that goes away eventually. W... read more

good Leo Johnson 3.03 mi 00:27 08:57 pace
This course has a killer hill on Lees Lane leading up to Cuthbert.

RUN
tired Speed Workout 3.29 mi
Ran back and forth a few times around Knight's Park, trying to get some sprints in. The rain didn't help.

Why does dailymile think places 3 hours away are in my area?

RUN
alright Pete Martell 3.45 mi 00:29 08:29 pace
Put a lot of juice into this run. This course has been plaguing me with slow runs, but I think this may be a PR.

Yeah, a PR by about 3 seconds.

good Pete Martell 3.45 mi 00:32 09:12 pace
I must be bad at gauging my pace during a run. This felt much faster than a 9:12 pace.

blah Audrey Horne 3.15 mi 00:30 09:30 pace
Turned off the eagles game and went for a slow run. The only cool part was that my time was exactly 30 minutes, 0 seconds.

good Leland Palmer 3.03 mi 00:26 08:29 pace
Warm out today, but felt really good. I can feel my pace picking up again.

RUN
great Block Loop 0.46 mi 00:05:46 12:32 pace
Sasha, my 4 year old daughter, and I went for a run today. We drew a finish line in front of our house and ran around the block. We stopped to rest 3 or 4 times, but she had fun.

RUN
great The Log Lady 2.32 mi 00:19 08:14 pace
Short, fast run. Trying to improve my speed and working on my form. Got through almost 2 miles before I had to start heel striking again.

Sweet. I set a record on this course tonight.

Nicely done.

You might want to look at a lower profile shoe if you're serious about front striking. Everyone makes them now, I went from a pair of NBs to the Nike Free 5.0 & the difference was dramatic.

If I bought new shoes I'd probably go with the Frees based on what I've read. I think my feet just need to toughen up a little more. I can't imagine less shoe would solve my current issue, but I wouldn't mind having less weight in them. If I don't get any blisters, I can front strike now for about 3.5 miles which is a big improvement from when I started.
