A nice day for a 10K but I unfortunately fell and hurt my right ankle a bit, because I was too busy paying attention to a car that was not slowing down as it neared the crossing points of the Westside Regional Trail. I should be able to walk perfectly fine by Monday, but it’s annoying because I was hoping to squeeze in another 10K tomorrow before the freezing rain weather hit us next week 🙃 (But the new insoles feel pretty good!)

A nice easy long run soaking up the afternoon sun! ☀️ Also, I test ate an “Enemoti” (energy + mochi = エネ餅) that my mom brought back from Japan for me! It was a nice change from the gel packs, but since it’s pretty big and requires a good deal of chewing, I think I’ll stick with yokan (羊羹) for my race.

I’m planning to run this route in reverse next weekend… so it’s going to be all uphill 😵

I got out the door a bit late this morning, so a nice simple 5K around the neighborhood 🪿 The good news is that my calves weren’t sore (I was just lazy over the weekend), but the bad news is that the inner tips of my big toes hurt… hopefully that’ll go away as I break the shoes in.

A nice cold morning for a nice first run with my new Saucony Tempus shoes ☀️ It definitely felt nice and roomy, similar to my Altra Timp 5. But they really worked out my calves for some reason (it’s 8mm drop vs. my usual 0mm drop), so I’ll probably be sore tomorrow!

Today’s tunes 🎧 https://spore.social/@kzodasnowman/115906411292612371 (I didn’t add any of these to my running playlist, but tricot is my favorite in this batch.)

Catching up on my runs again… with a little help from my friends (and their music recommendations)! ❤️ Today’s nice slow run was fueled by Demae, Zainichi Funk, Te KuraHuia, and Names You Can Trust: https://spore.social/@kzodasnowman/115906383115578487

Honestly I need something less chill for running/workouts (otherwise I’d chill forever and never push myself 😂) but now I’m following Zainichi Funk on #Bandcamp!

I ran to Westfield Valley Fair to pick up a pair of jeans for my brother, and saw a rainbow on my way back! 🌈 I also had a class scheduled for 4pm, but the gym was closed for some reason so no strength training today… 🥲
