Easy Run with a Good Friend

Today I was still sore from Saturday's 10k race, so I decided to just keep the pace and distance light. I was also joined by a good friend who is getting back into running, so it was definitely going to be fun shaking some of this soreness out.

We decided to go to run the Greenway at Riverside Park. It is a beautiful place that even though it is paved, it travels through the woods and runs parallel to a river which makes it a very nice place to run. We had a great run and the logistics for me were 40 mins at an easy pace with an average heart rate of 139.

As you can tell from earlier posts, I am a shoe geek. I wear Brooks shoes and am a member of their I.D. Team. I cannot say enough great things about their company and products. Today I wore the red/yellow "wild" colored pair of Green Silence. Great shoe that is light and has a nice lower heel to aid in mid/forefoot running. Another great day pounding pavement!
