Forgot to post after last night's maintenance run, so let's get it out of the way: four 0.66-mile loops in the park, 35 minutes. That's about 13:15 a mile, which is closer to what my pace should be, at least for training purposes, or at least for right now.
For the second run in a row, I had the odd experience of my left foot getting a bit numb near the end of the run. This is a bit concerning, although also a bit strange because it's not like this is the first two times I've gone running - it didn't happen last Saturday, for instance, and I covered the most distance that day, although the numbness stops when I switch to a walk and I probably spent more total time walking that day, though not that much more. I tried loosening the laces on my left shoe but it didn't seem to do much, although maybe they could be loosened more. It's also possible it's some sort of stretching issue. Either way I'll ask the coach what she thinks this Saturday, because I don't think I can run 20+ miles on one numb foot.
