I've decided not to buy a new pair of shoes for the marathon. There's not enough time to break them in. Secondly and more importantly, I feel very comfortable in the ones I have. Like I said before, the only problem might be a lot of joint pain during the marathon but I think I'd have that even with new shoes that provide a little more padding. Incidentally, my achilles tendon, the one I injured last year, was hurting a lot today. I iced it and I'm back on naproxen sodium which I'll take for the next few days. I'm supposed to do a short tempo run tomorrow but I might take the day off.
Total:
3.20mi Run
