My knee was bugging me so I only ran once during the week to see how my old Sauconys felt. And my knee still bugged me but my heels didn't feel any worse. So I decided to go with them for the Half Marathon on Saturday. The Brooks will be going back to the store.
And I'm kinda mad about the half marathon. I get that its inaugural race but it was half a mile short! I was on track to get a huge PR. But I'll never know what it was exactly. I know I still got a PR but I'm not sure what. Sigh. I just need to remember that it was for charity.
Tuesday-- 3 miles in 31:27 (Mile 1: 9:59, Mile 2: 11:04, Mile 3: 10:23, average pace: 10:28)
Saturday--chORD Half Marathon--12.52 miles in 2:19:46 (Mile 1: 9:39, Mile 2: 10:19, Mile 3: 10:18, Mile 4: 11:18, Mile 5: 11:50, Mile

I run in Saucony's too but am thinking of switching back to Brooks..too funny (well, not if you are in pain!). What type of Brooks did you have?

I used to run in Ravennas before I switched to the Sauconys. The one they just tried to put me in are Defyance
DeleteI just switched to Sauconys not too long ago from Brooks; I love the Guides but I miss my cushioning! Or, my knees do anyways :)
ReplyDeleteMy knees seem to be achey-er (so not a word!) in Brooks.
