The best 6 Miler!

So I avoided my 6 mile run yesterday by going to Melt for dinner with my friend instead. My first time eating at Melt and I was impressed! If you like grilled cheese, you must make your way there. I had a sandwich with a pirogi, kraut and cheddar (which I am paying for with this migraine today) that was to die for. If you live in Cleveland and haven't been. yet, I say high tail it over there! Don't be turned off by the long wait it is usually quicker then the avg 40 min they say. If you do not live in Cleveland I insist on you coming to visit and we will go! :)

So now onto my best 6 mile ever! I decided to get my long run in this morning at the gym. Got there a little later then usual but there were still tons of people. I got the very last treadmill open (but that is Monday for you) and hopped on hoping to get at least 5 mile in with the time I had. This was my first test run with the new shoes and with my new ipod that I just bought yesterday. I would just like to say I love them both very very much My new shoes are great. What was I thinking training for a marathon last year and not investing in a good pair of shoes? I had no pain anywhere on me while running. I thought the pain was just normal but it really was the crappy shoes I had. I am a little sore now but it is all good because I felt great after the run. I was having a rough morning so that could of motivated me running a little too fast. A 52 min 6 mile is quick for my long run of the week. But like I said it felt good.

Now I am downloading a little more music to the pod and heading to bed because I have this terrible headache.

Redesigning

I am trying to make my page look pretty, whatever that means. LOL It was kind of boring just as it was so I am changing it around a little and adding more eventually. For now I am really tired but felt I haven't blogged in a long time and I needed to get a quick one in. I thought I have been lazy because I have not gotten many runs in the last two weeks but then I looked at my work schedule and realized why I have been soooo tired. I walk dogs during the day. My work load has been almost doubled because we lost a walker at the the beginning of the year. On average I have been going on 12 walks a day. Even though I know the running has been slim I do get my legs moving a lot and get a few miles of walking in a day. New walker hired so I should be getting some good posts starting Sunday after my six mile run. That is all I can hammer out for right now. I am super tired and have work at 7am. But check out my official maraton training shoes:


I am super excited! I have never really had a good running shoe. I love how light these are and the color is perfect for me too! Hopefully they treat my feet well; no stress fractures and less blisters is the main goal!
