The honest truth

I just returned from a tempo run, not so much to gauge my fitness for the upcoming race but to see if there is any difference in wearing trainers vs racing flats. The Brooks Glycerine 8 are really Asics-like, only better in that they are more flexible. The flexibility comes close to the racing flats I have. Turned in a decent time for a 14k with them too.

Which actually got me all excited about tonight. If trainers gave me a decent time, I ought to be flying with my flats. Ha! I ran the tempo at the same pace as when I wore the trainers.

Sigh..so much for racing flats making you go faster.
