@Scott6255 So far the shoes feel great and I have no doubt they make me more efficient than when I wear regular shoes. They are also "rockers", they have a nice roll to them.

I guess I must have really been overdoing it before haha. I had a great 12x400 meter workout yesterday (60 second rest breaks), which felt surprisingly good for…

My goal this month is to lose weight while successfully training for a half marathon on 4/3. I've run many halfs and a half dozen full marathons in the past, and always gain weight while training. This time, I'm counting calories and being conscious of my diet, hoping to curb that trend. So far, I have lost about 3.1 lbs…
