Rest day today, Starting week 4
Finished week three yesterday and I feel fairly good. The bike ride yesterday was wonderful with plenty of energy for the climbs up Jensen, part of Palisade and Palmer Hills for a total of 13 miles. My 5 runs for the week totaled 18 miles even with the drop back day for my long run, (every third week your long run drops a couple of miles to give your legs a rest). I am not losing weight but staying at the -20 pound loss. For now I am happy with that until I get motivated to lose again. I received my new shoe Friday and ran in them on Saturday for my five mile long run. So far they worked great. I got closeouts on Salomon XR Mission Door to Trail. $79 you can't beat that these days. They are a neutral cushion shoe with a little stability. They have an aggressive sole for trails and the advertising says they will work well on the road as well as the trails. They make a more stable shoe but they weren't on sale ($140 bucks). These are light shoes and I hope they hold up with me being 223 pounds. We will see. Just Run
