Had planned to do 22 miles today but only got to 9.5. Yeah...it's like that. I've developed some type of nasty head cold that means that I can only breath through my mouth, which has ultimately given me a sore throat and some serious drainage. Add that to the fact that once again I got some serious blisters at about mile 8 (even using bodyglide), something I never had a problem with in the past with other shoes, and I couldn't finish my run. Talk about frustrated. I now have BIG blisters on both my feet. My plan is to still run the marathon in 2 weeks but it'll probably tougher than I wanted. I'm going to take these shoes back to the store and exchange them for some good old Brooks Infinitis since I know they are great shoes and my feet like them. The good news is that my legs aren't even sore today and I could have continue my run if I could have breathed and didn't have my blisters. Ugh.....
