5pm and 80 degrees. First 4.1 in 31:01 (7:34s) Next 7.45 in 57:18 (7:42s). Total run of 11.55 in 1:28:20 (7:39s)Although I was pretty shot at the end of this run, I was pleased with my ability to maintain a 'easy' pace. However, it did put more strain on my leg muscles, especially my quads.

5pm, 78 degrees, and an almost cool breeze. Ran 3.3 miles to St Louis Running Center to see about some sort of arch support for my shoe. These Nike Vomero 3s seem to be a bit thinner in the arch than the 2s were. We couldn't find anything that really worked, so we're going to try to custom build one out of some cut up inserts. After that did 7.7 more. Tried to keep the run smooth and even today. Got on the border of tired around mile 9 or so, but nothing major. Running time 1:21:41 (7:26s).

Off today. Sleep has been bad lately. Probably averaging about 5-6 hours a night. Got to find a way to fall asleep easier.
