Warming Up

It warmed all the way up to 25 degrees this morning.  I felt strong the entire run.  I didn't have to stop for water at all.  I took a tortilla with me and ate it while jogging slowly.  It was a little dry, but perfect for energy at miles 4 and 6.  I had half a banana and a peanut butter and honey tortilla before the run, which is a good amount of food for a semi-long run.  The snow on the sidewalks is still a problem, so I spent most of the run in the street, which is no big deal since only 3 other people in the entire world are up at 5:00 am.

On an equipment note, my awesome new Saucony running shoes have a hole in the top of the shoe.  I'm not talking about the one you put your foot in either.  (That reminds me of the underwear joke...Do you have holes in your underwear?  No?  Then how do you get them over your feet?  I never said it was a funny joke.)  I guess my toenail somehow wore through my sock and through my shoe only a week or so after I got them.  I've got to take them back or just live with the hole.
