Not quite 100% recovered

I just ran 4 miles today and got winded after 2. My running shoes are running over the mileage so my feet began to hurt as well. I also donated blood last Friday so that didn't help things either. Overall, it was nice to be outside and to enjoy a relaxing stroll through the park.

I just placed an order for new running shoes as well as a running gadget that automatically records my running distances. The shoes are semi-cushioned but are extremely lightweight. The low weight is perfect for racing or doing PR attempts but the lack of cushioning increasing the risk of injury. I might have to buy another pair of shoes depending on how these feel.

The watch is a Nike accelerometer that gauges gait patterns to determine distances over all types of terrain. With  this gadget, I no longer have to critically plan out my routes and can take detours knowing that every step is recorded.
