8 Miles

I raced the sun and I won! Ran 8 miles this morning along the river this morning in my VFFs. Felt like I could have run 100, but I must have been dragging my gimp ass left leg a little because I think I got a blister. it didn't look bad, so hopefully it is just a little tender and I won't have a shoe full of water after work.

I signed up for an introduction class to ChiRunning for this Saturday. I am very excited about it because I am still getting a little soreness in my calves which means I am not fully relaxed. I hope to learn a few things to take with me on my runs.

I also signed up to run the Half Marathon on Thanksgiving day, so now I have a goal to shoot for before the ING Marathon in March.

Hi. I'm a bit older than you but we are on similar paths. I haven't selected a particular race but I'm looking to run a marathon next year. I'm also running in VFFs and having some issues with my calves off and on. I'm also looking at running methods, etc. Anyway, keep up the good work. I'll be following along with your blog and on twitter.
