Not a good week for running. Missed Beginning Running (T worked late) and only ran once during the week--just kind of bogged down by stress. Bought new shoes Friday instead of running--needed to be done. New Brooks Trance 8 was a giant disappointment. Tried on current Kayanos and Nirvana--wasn't excited by either. Ended up with Brooks Adrenaline 8, the step-down from the Trance. It wasn't ideal that their first run was 8 mi., but it was ok. I really did need new shoes, even though I didn't want to admit it.

Saturday: 8/1:21. Ran to Magellan development, got free breakfast and a ride back to Montrose. First outdoor run in shorts this year--took off windbreaker and wore short sleeves most of the way. Very nice!!

Took kids to swimming while T worked out, then we all took the train downtown to ride the ferris wheel.
