My home thermometer showed 86f, in the shade. It was mildly humid as well. Felt fine on run until last half mile. Just started to lose energy. I know its due to erratic sleep. Foot pain minimal, but there appears to be a little swelling when I compare it to the other foot. YIKES !!! I just added up my shoe mileage...I really should pay closer attention to it...it is 554.84 ! Over the years I have only run in one pair at a time until they are dead. This time I will try 2 pair and rotating them. Looks like a trip to the big city on Tuesday. I have no idea what type of shoes I should get when I go shopping for them. But for the last two purchases I have depended on the guy at the running store I go too. He is highly recommended in the Richmond, VA area. I am going to look into finding some type of shoe dryer as well. Almost everyday this Summer my shoes are still damp with sweat from the run before. This, by far, has made these the stinkiest, rottenest, funkiest pair of running shoes I have ever owned.
