Success

Big success today with my VFF. I had been wanting to do long run in them and today was the day. Finally, I had two days rest for my shins to get the rest that they needed for today's event and it payed off.

I was able to do 15 miles and some in them within 3 hrs and 6 minutes. I stopped at the house every time I made the 5 miles mark and took maybe 5 minutes rest.

I had consumed :

• 3 of 16 ounces of water
• 8 ounce of gaterade
• 2 energy gel
• a banana

I am now tired and my feet are up on the recliner.  We will bike to Pho place which is about 20 minutes ride one way in a little while, maybe in 30 minutes.

I tried to run on some grass with them today and felt so better compare to concrete. I am impressed with how my feet acclimatized  within months of practiced.

I am hoping to do the marathon with them in October 9, 2011.
