Lewis & I did our long runs on the treadmill at the gym Fri. night. We needed to get them over-with since we were getting ready for Paige's party today.
Lewis ran 5 miles and said that's the furthest he's ever run. He ran at a 5.5 most of the time & said he felt good when he was done.
I ran 3.5 miles in 45:36. My plan is to do my long runs SLOWLY (which was kind of hard at some times). I also walked for 5 minutes at the end for a total of 3.75. This is the furthest I've ever gone. I felt great, but my left foot is hurting in my shoe. It's the top of my foot that's killing me. The tongue of the shoe feels weird. My toes feel like they're bunching up. My foot was hurting just after mile one & I just kept thinking I wish it would go numb so I couldn't feel it. The first thing I did when I got in the car was take my darn shoe & sock off....just on the left foot, though!
Lewis & I both got new socks & they seem to be working okay. They're just moisture-wicking socks, kind of thick. They seem to be doing okay for us.
TOTAL MILES THIS WEEK - 9 1/2
