20 miles run this weekend to try on new running shoes





I ran on my brand new Brooks Ravenna 5 this morning, but toes started hurting after 7 miles and so bad that I had to stop at 10 miles (average 10:13 per mile). I loved my Ravenna 4, tried Ravenna 6 which torn at ankle tongue so I returned them. Ravenna 5 is not as well built as Ravenna 4, but much better than Ravenna 6. My feet may grow wider/longer as I aged? I will test with thinner socks then decide whether to go half size bigger. I was told at a running shoe store that my right foot is size 6.5 and my left foot size 6. So only one side grows bigger??? — at George Mason High School.

After changing into thinner socks and adjusting shoelace spacing to provide wider space for my toes, I ran another 10 miles today at a faster pace 10.08 per mile, although my muscles were tired by yesterday 10 miles. You can read more about the tips of tiring shoelaces to adjust to your foot shapes and to run 8 minutes per mile!!!
