New Year, New Start

After four weeks off of running, I finally got back in the game the past two days. 4 miles each day here in Frisco, TX, with Alan. Today was a little cooler than yesterday, but I can't complain seeing as how the temperature in Kansas City is struggling to get into double digits. I meant to run with my brother while we were together in Longview but our laziness and finally the weather conspired against us. These two runs were nice and easy and that's the way it's going to be for a little bit as I decide what race to run next and then develop a training plan.

I also wanted to get a new pair of shoes before starting to run again since my last two pairs are pretty much spent after running a couple of marathons and all the requisite training for them. Went to Academy Sports in Longview earlier in the week and bought a pair of Asics Gel Nimbus 11. Spent more than I wanted to but I didn't want to wait for something to come by mail. They're silver and feel good, which is the best part. We'll see where these shoes carry me in the next few months.
