@randomized Comment ça se passe ta transition aux chaussures minimalistes? Ça fait combien de temps que tu les portes et qu'est-ce qui te retient à changer pour de bons?

Je demande car c'est un sujet qui m'intéresse. J' ai juste une paire de chaussures barefoot de ville, que je commence à apprécier de plus en plus pour la marche.

Bon je regarde les prix des chaussures et je 😱.

Je regrette ma 1ere paire d'Asics à 60 balles (en 2018)

Du coup j'hésite entre:
* Yolo reprend des saucony à 200 brouzoufs
* tsss tu fais à peine 30k de route par semaine, vas chez Decat'
* finis ta transition en minimaliste et finis de poncer ces 5 fingers (et tes mollets)

Much more shuffle-jog than walk-shuffle. I even had a little sprint, in the last couple of hundred metres. Though I'm still not ready for full-out running, but it's getting easier to do the things you take for granted when you're ribs and intercostal muscles aren't all bruised.

The upside, is this 'shuffle' technique is teaching me that you can be faster by going slower, by managing energy, heart rate, all while keeping a consistent metronomic pace.

#LongRunSunday: got my last long run done before next Sunday's #MillTown #Marathon (and before the rain)! Plan was pacing 8’/mi for the first half and 7’35”/mi for the second to get under BQ goal pace 7’37”/mi. Got 7’35”/mi and PRs on 10mi and 15K (1:09:25, a min faster than the PR from last month)!

But I might have a shoe problem (Nike Alphafly 3): felt sore on the right side of right foot after the run. I thought it’d pass after a few runs, but looks like it didn’t. 😞 Any ideas?

Made a new friend on my run. Perhaps a hairy woodpecker. Red patch on the back of their neck was very faint. The trails are still muddy in spots, but a lot drier than I expected. Pathways are mostly clear. Beautiful running weather. Double long run weekend. After yesterday's wet slog, this was glorious. One more week of base and then a ten week build! I'm feeling cautiously optimistic! Looking forward to the grind!

Just think: the average person who isn't into #running or hiking has absolutely no idea why a $20 pair of socks is totally worth it.

I think I'm going to become the Johnny Appleseed of getting normals to experience the plush luxury of Finer Socks Club.

Or maybe we should keep it to ourselves and be a sock oligarchy. IDK.

Cherry Blossom Ten Mile Run today - not my best outing, 83:31, 8:22 pace. Had a restroom emergency at mile 4 and had to wait 3 minutes in the line - my moving time was just at 80 minutes, pretty close to goal.

We had 13 runners from the 'hood this year - it's great to live in a place where we can have fun together and look out for each other too (before/after) #running

An easy run of an hour would have become a 10km pb. That seemed very unlikely to me and it was. My Garmin Fenix ​​7 appeared to be off track again and had calculated 2km longer than the actual distance 😞
An export / import of the GPX recovered the distance but I become more and more disappointed with Garmin. Crashes, wrong distance, there always seems to be something wrong nowadays.
