Today was supposed to be my first hill workout and it was, for the most part. I bought some new shoes today! These shoes are different from anything else I have ever worn. The Newton Distance Racer is a shoe that can most easily be compared to a Ferarri. They want to be run in fast and DEFINITELY punish bad form. These shoes are designed to force you to strike the ground on your forefoot instead of your heel, thus keeping you from losing momentum through the running motion. As soon as I put it on I could feel the difference. These shoes forced me to recruit muscles I never knew I had, and thus tired quickly and cut my workout about 1 mile short. I think though that the miles I did get in were good. I guess I'll really see tomorrow when I wake up and find out how sore I am. Tomorrow is another 3 miler. I'll probably use the Newtons again, but run on the treadmill instead.
