Comments: Off day. New shoes: New Balance - Fresh Foam X 860v14 (Grey Matter with Black and Ginger Lemon). Purchased at Fleet Feet - Menlo Park, where an assistant scanned my feet with a Volumental scanner. It turned out I need a bit wider shoe, so have a 2E now. Tried 4 pairs. The assistant mentioned my feet point inward and after doing a knee-flex bounce test (stand on one foot and slightly squat down so the knee flexes), noticed the knee moves inward. He thought that might explain some chafing/callous on my toes. I.e., pronating inward. Immediately felt so much better than my old pair of HOKA Challenger ATR 7. The assistant explained the shoe I was using was meant more for trail running (hello 💡 That explains why on sale at REI). Sunday is magic mile time trials, for total of 6 miles.
Any irregular feelings, aches, pains, heart rate, and so forth?: Bit tired
