My week was similar to last - 60k in 5 runs, all easy, still lacking rhythm - I feel uncoordinated at the moment. There are some minor niggles in the return to more regular running, but the thigh pain is behaving itself.
Surprisingly my best 2 runs were in Nike LunarGlides - the Boston special editions which I bought more as a casual shoe than a runner. I'm running in them without my orthotics (unheard of) They are extremely light for such a stable shoe - probably as light as a DS trainer, but in my case even lighter because I dont need the orthotics (when I tried them I felt my foot was being pushed too far into supination)

Is it the shoes! cool shoes! sounds good. keep at it. Mm entries open this week. whats your 2010 goal/s?
Thanks mate.
Glad to hear you're still taking it easy but getting out there and doing some km's. Really interesting re the shoes and no orthotics.
I wore Nike Lunar Trainer, which is a sister of Lunar Glide for my long runs and considering to get Nike Lunar Racer for marathons. They are so light but cushy at the same time.
I think Nike has got it right with this Lunar technology.
