Weekend Run #2

Los Gatos Trail, Campbell,  3 miles, 36.48 mins. May 15 2010.

This was the second long run. We both were running with different new shoes. Both of us went and exchanged our shoes. I was running with a higher stability shoes which is a W now, D width shoes, these shoes are not snug at my arches - more room. And S got rid of the 'brooks beast' and these shoes, he says, are much lighter, more comfortable than the beast.

This trail was fairly flat but for 2 -3 sort of uphills. Sort of an introduction to SF.
We start as usual with Coach Raman kicking off the initial stretches before the run and Coach Martina leading the post run stretch and strengthening.

We definitely need fuel belts. The only water station was at 1.3 miles and I was actually dry in my mouth.
I dont know if it was the new shoes and the getting used to it. I found this run a lil hard. I was breathing hard. Ofcourse I was trying to run at a slightly - slightly higher pace. Miles 2 - 2.5 were really hard and seemed never ending and then I met a girl and chatted with her all the way to the end. Much better.

S finished with 39.xx minutes. Panera for breakfast.
