This is how the week went:

Tuesday: 4.1 miles AP: 8:05, NROL4W 3A- cut short, started feeling dizzy (need to eat between run and weights =))

Wednesday: 1 mile easy, 2miles AP: 7:16, 1 mile easy, 2 miles AP: 7:13, 0.5 miles easy, 6.5 miles

Thursday: NROL4W 3B- skipped the intervals (off day for running), finished stage 3 on to stage 4

Friday: 5.06 miles AP 8:05- 3 miles in my kigos, 2 miles barefoot

Saturday: 10.04 miles AP: 8:27- it was a sauna out there!

Sunday: rest

Total miles: 31.89

YTD: 616.79

My test run in the kigo's went really well.  They fit fairly snug, so my feet don't feel "sloppy".  But yet are light enough and thin enough to give a barefoot feel.  They have a bit more traction on the bottom, so I'm betting they would work great on the trails.  That will be my next test. 

While I still love my VFF's, I do like that these look like "normal" shoes. 

The plan for next week:

Monday: 5 mile tempo run (7:19- 7:38)

Tuesday: easy 4 miles NROL4W 4A

Wednesday: 15 min WU, 3x(400, 800, 400) (1:30 RI) (2:30RI between sets) (1:33-1:37, 3:10- 3:18) 10 min WD

Thursday: easy 5 miles, NROL4W 4B

Friday: rest

Saturday: easy 12-15 miles

Sunday: rest

I have a 15k race coming up in a couple weeks.  I think once I finish that, I might drop my speed workout until after the marathon.  I'll focus on getting some longer tempo and marathon pace runs in.
