Shoes, part II

Felt much better today. The ankle bruise seems to have gone, and although I have a stuffy nose, my body felt good at the end of a brisk 14k.

Dad suggested by email maybe my body's trying to tell me I'm overworking things. But I figured:

The root cause of my shoe problem seems to have been running on a road, as opposed to a trail. The road I was running on is humped in the middle, presumably to allow rain to run off. If you cannot run right down the middle, you're running on a slope. I believe the solution to that problem is to go run on a trail.

A bike trail might be a good starting point if the other trails are too bumpy.
