I enjoyed listening to Coach Steve as he shared his marathon training experiences with the group.
He talked about how he had worked with City of Hope to create their Walk for Hope 5k/10k series and marathon training program.
Coach Steve gave a high level overview of the Sole Runners program and handed out sample marathon and half-marathon training schedules.
There was a Saucony shoe giveaway but unfortunately, my name wasn't pulled. (I was hoping I would win so I could give the pair to my friend, Jeannie.)
This was my third run in my new shoes. So far, they feel really good under my feet and my arches are well supported.
We ran past a Japanese restaurant, Rice Heaven, where they proudly proclaimed 'We make you smile with rice'.
As the last of the sun's illumination faded, we passed De Portola Park. We ran in darkness for awhile and then headed back to our cars.
Glad the new shoes are working out for you. Hope they behave well on your long run.
ReplyDeleteJealous of your proximity to Road Runner Sports. Probably a good thing for my wallet that I can only reach them virtually.
Sound like you had a great night! What a deal 15% off PLUS VIP, good thing I was not there :) I am so happy your shoes are working, I hope they keep it up!
ReplyDeleteIt is always nice to get some new running shoes and have them work out :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like my kind of running party :)
Thank you so much, Evolving, Rad Runner, and Tim.
ReplyDeleteI can't tell you how relieved I am that these shoes are working for me because I was seriously starting to run out of options. The width of my feet really limit what shoe brands I can wear because I need so much space in the toebox.
Sounds like good quality running time. Glad the shoes are working.
