Monday check-up (day 58)

I am up to 51 runs, reeling back some lost mileage from Christmas...So far, I am logging slow mileage to get consistency. Once March hits, I plan to increase cadence and work on speed more with some tempo runs. Alot depends on my body, though. So far, so good. So, I bought a slightly used pair of Asics Kayano 13s on ebay as a winter/slop shoe. Man, these shoes are not great. I have been alternating between my Nimbus and these, and the Nimbus is much more smooth. Then, I found a pair of Cumulus for $20 at Marshalls, and scooped them up and put them in the rotation, and they are cloud-like. I have moved the Kayanos out of the rotation and into the kick-around shoe vein. Clearly, I need more of a neutral/cushion shoe, and I am glad that my legs have held up so far. Thats it for now...

Sounds like you are on a quest for the perfect shoe - or at least you are trying to wear a huge variety this season :)

The helmet looks sweet too.

Keep up the good work on the 100/100 - I think you'll get to the gold level for sure.
