- General: Ugh. The nagging left foot caught up with me bad today. The left arch is really shot and made me stop prematurely. I really don't know what I did and why it won't go away, but I'm pretty sure I'm done with my long runs before the race. I definitely didn't want this to happen but I would rather remain positive than start to freak out. I walked much of the last 20-30 minutes of the run simply because it hurt too much. Some good news was that it hurt 10x worse going up and down hill and not as bad on flats. My race course is completely flat.
- Nutrition: Poor.
- Body: My legs were pretty wiped today from the box squats yesterday and probably some of the other stuff.
- Sleep: 8 hours
- Reflections: I ordered the New Balance Mt101's today, which are trail shoes designed for a more minimalist feel. I got them for $54 dollars so I was pleased to get a good deal and a 2nd pair of trail shoes. Decided I am going to give the 50pullups.com program a shot after seeing how much success Shane Skowron (His Blog) had using it. Fits well with my gym schedule so might as well give it a chance. Am I bummed about my injury? Of course. But I'm going to NJ regardless and I'd rather run my foot into the ground and finish last place than quit. Some big life changes are going to begin starting this tomorrow. No more excuses. I'm done shorthanding myself.
