August 11 - 5 (walked) miles

After sleeping in this morning and skipping full court basketball, I decided to go for an afternoon walk — both for exercise and to clear my head. So many thoughts that needed to be dispersed. What better way to rid my head of them than a walk outside. I walked for 5 miles, about 15 min. mile pace, finishing in 1 hour, 15 minutes. Not being able to run certainly isn't fun, and walking is not nearly as exciting, but I still like to be outside and feel like I'm doing something. My Garmin said I burned 400 calories and I'm okay with that. I wore a new IT band strap and it seemed to work well. I went to Jacksonville Running Company at lunch with Audra and we both got fitted for new running shoes. Her in Mizunos and me in Brooks Glycerin 7's. We'll see how those work out when they arrive later this week.
