Today was supposed to be just a leisurely 12miles with Brett.. but that turned into a 12.4mile in 85 degrees with random large sized hills. I will admit, the hills felt good & will help in the long run.(lol pun!) When we were done, my legs got a sweet heat rash on them, and then a little while later my face did too. And I coughed for like 2 hours! This is the 2nd time getting heat rash ever, and they both were within the same few weeks. Hope this isn't a regular occurrence! I used to get runner's cough when I was in middle school, but it's been forever, so I hope that's not a regular occurrence either! I also noticed a huge blister on my foot afterward, and that's only my second blister this year too. haha, just not my day to run I guess.
On a positive note, the New Balance rep was at the track yesterday & I tried on a pair of racing flats. Oddly enough, I've never even tried a pair on. But I instantly fell in love. I don't know if it was the color or feel or maybe a little of both, but I got so geeked. They're not out yet, so I asked today when they're coming in and was informed that the NBx team already ordered me a pair! (free, too...which is the best part because I wasn't really ready to commit to ANOTHER $100 pair of shoes haha) They better make me run like a 16 minute 5k. ;)
Easy mileage for the next 2 days then volkslaufe on monday woooo.
