And the run was painful for me: My right shin, medially, was still hurting!  The pain was pretty strong in the beginning of my run and it dissipated over the course of 8+ miles, though it was there throughout.  It was also in my left shin in a mirrored place but it wasn&#8217;t as strong there.  It was hard to go fast at all today because of the combination of heat and hurt, but in not caring about pace, I logged some good miles.<br \/>\n<iframe width='465' height='548' frameborder='0' src='http:\/\/connect.garmin.com:80\/activity\/embed\/35389592'><\/iframe><br \/>\nElizabeth and I talked a lot during the run.  Most of the run was pleasant, though in the beginning I felt I was going to have a heart attack!  (I chose to forego the heart rate monitor for today.)  It was 77, then 75 degrees, with about 70% humidity and light sprinkles at times.<\/p>\n<p>There were a number of runners in the park today; I figured it had something to do with a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nyrr.org\" target=\"_blank\">New York Road Runners<\/a> class given the number of serious, fast runners in the mix.  It didn&#8217;t do much for my ego, as I started to feel pretty fat and slow, but as I explained to Elizabeth, I&#8217;ve been trying to compare my current self with a better-trained self of about September or November of last year.  I ain&#8217;t in that kind of shape.  Plus, I&#8217;m not that far off of shape I was in at this time last year.  However, it&#8217;s been hard to get to that level because it&#8217;s been so hot.<\/p>\n<p>So the pain was pretty severe.  I also put on my Mizuno Wave Precision 10s for the first time, which felt a half size small.  This was not a problem when running, but it felt like a problem when walking because my toes felt pushed.  I&#8217;m going to see if this shoe size is tolerable for me to run in.  My brother says it&#8217;s slightly lighter and closer to the ground than my prior Wave Rider 13s.  I didn&#8217;t notice a difference and other than the small fit, they rode well.<\/p>\n<p>ArginMax and quercetin were just before my run, and about two hours before was a 6-inch Subway sandwich which may have weighed me down a bit today.  All in all, it wasn&#8217;t a great run performancewise, but I did get in the mileage, it was with great company, and I did it on a day I also had work.  It&#8217;s starting to feel really nice when I can fit in work <em>and<\/em> training.<\/p>\n<p>And I enjoyed a Protein Zone Naked Juice after the run.  All 32 fl. oz.  Don&#8217;t worry: I had 4 Beano just before chugging it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I ran with Elizabeth today in muggy, cloudy weather.
