3.79K Run, Tornado Warning and New New Shoes

Tonight I only ran 3.79K out of my 8K scheduled due to some rain I ran into.  There is a Tornado warning tonight, but I still went out, but decided to turn around when it started to rain.  It of course stopped raining by the time I got home, but there is still a Tornado warning.  I also got new, new shoes!  As per my previous posts I was having discomfort with my Saucony Progrid Omni 9s so I was talking to my running group leader and he said to come in to Runner's Choice to see him.  He had me try on a couple other pair of shoes and determined that I seemed to walk better in a pair of Saucony Progrid Echelon 2.

I was very impressed with the customer service as I did not go in expecting to be able to return my original pair of shoes!

10K Run #2

Tonight I ran 10K in 1hour and 36mins.  1 minute slower then my last 10K run, but I'll take it!  My new shoes are still bothering me a bit so I am going to head to Runner's Choice tomorrow afternoon to see if they have any suggestions.  I just don't want sore feet to effect my 20K run to Port Stanley on Sunday!
