New runner, need to know if this is normal. :)

I have this problem every time I have worn out a pair of shoes... in fact, that's how I now it's time to go get new ones... once I slip those new runners on my feet it's instant relief! I suggest going to a running store and getting fitted for the perfect pair, so that you can enjoy your new sport! Have fun - and congrats on the decision to start running - well done, you!

You might want to add in Yoga it really helps me after a good run stretches out the muscles and gives you a good cool down.

Uh 2 miles a day for 8 days straight?! Recipe for disaster if you're not a runner. Every other day for the time being. And the shoes, obviously. Stretch and ice and get fitted properly (at a running store).

Again, I'm not running weekends so no, not 8 days straight.

I found the ChiRunning form very good tips for a newbie runner.
