Calling all runners and running fans:
After yesterday's three hour run it was time to run a relaxed, easy run. Today I ran an 8 mile run along the trails of Victoria. The weather was perfect and so was my attitude. Even though running is my passion, there is times when you are just not feeling it. Today, however, I knew I had conquered my longest run during this training yet, this easy 8 mile would be nothing in comparison. After my run I at a huge bowl of strawberries and cereal with soy milk. Berry fruit is great after hard workouts because they have ant oxidants which help replenish muscles. After my run, I met up with my friend Chris at Starbucks for a catch up. Chris is a good friend of mine that attends UCR where he is getting his PhD in Psychology. After hanging out with Chris, I was off to the dentist for cavity fillings. I ended up getting 3 cavities filled in a fairly quick and painless session. I shall be returning soon to get 4 more. It had been three years since my last visit. I am just glad I didn't have any major issues :) 
On a side note, recently I got myself a new pair of shoes. I figure that I have about 7 weeks to go before the LA marathon and that should be sufficient time to break in the pair before the bid day. I went for a pair of mainly white, and blue, 401 New Balance. After having worn them a few times now, I can say that they are very comfortable and lightweight. The only downside is the white color; which ,as you can see is no longer truly white :( ....living our lifestyle on the run, R U ?
