Ennay -- very interesting about the barefoot running, I've never tried it, I feel like I'm too heavy and will hurt myself.

+5.1 mile run this morning...

I saw a guy run a marathon barefoot once.

2.5 miles today. We went to the high school track to time a mile but it was totally closed off. They are filming a movie there. As an aside, they are filming another movie where I work (with Hilary Swank). I did not see Hilary Swank but I had to park in a different area. So anyway we had to change our running plans so we only got 2.5 miles in. DH will help me get some Paris pix up tonight.

Looking forward to the pictures!

I've never run on a track because our high school seems to keep their all locked up. I'd love to give it a try some time.

Got our 4 mile in to Starbucks and back. Missed the rest of the week since Sunday due to ....too tired after work!!!... Plus Angie has the mutts out for their 3 evey morning before off to summer school...giving me a break(?)

Glad to see you back Baby Catcher...sounds like a wonderful experience!

Just saw a guy run a marathon barefoot a few weeks ago when I watched my daughter....coming from a guy that is never barefoot I don't get it...now Angie does...shoes come off when the car stops unless she is on a run!

285/1000 MILES

10 miles today with 5 @ marathon pace.

I am pretty sold on the barefoot running at least in short stints. My heel feels better than at any time in the last 2 years after only 1 week of every other day 0.5 mile bf runs. I dont see me converting to barefoot running for real running. To me it is more of a crosstraining thing. Xtraining my feet.
