Calves Hurt
WOW do my calves hurt. I got out of bed today and was in beautiful pain. Not sure I would ever say that but I know that means I was running correctly in my new $150 Newton Gravity shoes. I am excited only because I did a little taste test yesterday with my shoes. I ran three miles with Erin in the morning with my new shoes and then ran another 2 miles with my Neutral Support Asics. I could easily feel my knees and IT band tighten as soon as we ran 1 mile in old shoes.
The only way to wear in your Newtons is to run 3 to 4 miles 3 days a week for about 4 weeks. After that your calves get accustomed to the new stride. I have 1 run down and about 11 more to go. We run at 8 AM tomorrow near the LA Zoo.
