Novemburr Run Challenge (Page 10)

I have always loved Mizuno Wave Riders.  Unfortunately, the newest model sucks.  I went to Nike Pegasus.  They're ok....not great, though.  I'm impatiently waiting for Mizuno to pull it's head out and go back the model that felt good.

I run in K-Swiss shoes:

Keahou II - cushioned shoe for longer mileage

Blade Light Run - primarily my racing shoe and very comfy sockless.

California - I just ordered these for winter running and excited to try them out.  They have a ion mask that keeps the water out.  My feet were always drenched running in the snow/slush so hopefully these do the trick.

I was in New Balance prior and the toe box was too small for my liking.

Nice job!  join the club.

Way to finish ahead of goal time.  Too bad about the lack of Pic's....

Happy to get 42 miles ran last week.  That is my highest running volume ever and my body seems to be handling it great.  The one thing about all this running is I get to buy new shoes ALOT!

Hopefully I can string together another high mileage week and try not to let turkey and booze get me off course . 

Woo hoo!  Go Eastern!  Congrats on the high volume week!  I did a short run on my lunch in my attempt to catch up.  Crazy to think mere days ago I was wearing a bikini on a beach in Bahamas and today there were tiny snowflakes hitting my face on my lunch hour run!!??  It's like it was a dream.

High fives all around to Team Eastern TZ! Marcia went from the beach to the frost burn, and the Ryans both posted highest ever run weeks. That's right other time zone people, just try to beat all the personal success stories we've got over here.

Great job y'all !!  No success stories here - my runs have been uneventfully labored since I gave blood.  Oh well, I know for me it takes about a week to get back to normal.  Thursday's turkey trot will be interesting - right about that week window. 

Sounds like an awesome  challenge!  I think you should make smack talk a priority ha ha. 

My hubby isn't very active any more though was in his day.  We were chatting in the car and he said he could beat me hands down in a running race.  I agreed that a shorter distance he could (he used to sprint) but he hasn't run in years and so if it were say a mile - no chance.  My daughter got in on it and challenged us both to a show down.  It was supposed to happen on our cruise but hubby was feeling motion sickness - it hasn't been discussed since

It's the one time I wish I lived in the States!!  Our turkey day was over before this challenge began!!

van_paulus - 2011-11-23 3:12 PM HAHAHA!! Consistency is the key Cold weather helps getting my long runs in too. Find a training buddy that has this much fun and you wont be BAGGING workouts !

I hope my dog grows to be able to run like this with me!  SO CUTE!!!  I have a puggle and he's frisky but I heard at less than a year old you shouldn't try running long distances.  I take him out for little jaunts - he's fast!!

I may need to use those sandbags for the amount of rain that has fallen in the past 12 hours!  It's been insane!  The Turkey Trot should be interesting.
