Running (Lake Accotink) 1:15:00 [2] 6.5 mi (11:32 / mi)
Took my new O shoes out for a spin - came last week from Compass Point in England. They are a pair of Silva K80. Thye don't seem to bother my feet at all, though I can tell they don't have all the cushioning which I am used too.
Around Lake Accotink, plus the .75 spur, and then 2 additional miles in the middle (repeated one of the marked miles up and back). This was a compromise since I couldn't decide between 1 or 2 loops.
The 3.75 mile loop was in 45 min. Some of the miles were 10:57 11:07 13:00 (fiddling with shoes for about 2 minutes) and 10:35. Had 2 downhill half miles of 4:53 and 4:42.
Felt like I was really struggling but time wasn't that bad.
