I set out to do 6 miles this morning. On the way out, I decided to extend it to 8 miles. At the turnaround, I was at about 9:45 pace, and I wanted to kick up the pace to average 9:30 for the whole run. I clicked off a 9:17, a 9:02, and an 8:58. But there was a building pain on the outside edge of my right foot. Just after passing the 7 mile mark, I gave up, took my shoes off, and walked the last mile home.
I have a large blister on my foot. This is the first blister I have had in the last several years. There did not seem to be any folded spot in my sock or anything else out of place. So I have just kicked the Nike Frees off my preferred running shoes list. I'm going back to my Asics.
