I think I understand why Football Players hate Turf Toe

Runs
Sat 5/6/06 - 5.17 miles, 44:36, (8:37 pace)
The ankle is holding up well. It is almost completely healed. The left middle toe continues to hurt.

Sunday 5/7/06 - 11 miles, 1:40 (9:06 pace)
The run was a little slow. My legs felt tired, probably from my "faster" run the day before. I can tell that I haven't built upon my gains. For example, just when I was turning the corner a few weeks ago, I turned my ankle. Hopefully, this toe issue will go away. I'm beginning to think my shoes may be playing a role. I have never really liked the Brooks GTS-6 that I bought before LBCM last year. I had been a faithful fan of the GTS-4 and 5. The 6 seems to be slightly different in its fit. It is lighter, and that is a plus, but there is something about this shoe that I don't like. I have nearly 300 miles on this and I'm giving up on them. The will be my short run shoe, maybe. After 3 1/2 years of All Brooks, All the time, I'm going a different direction. ?Asics, ?Mizuno, ?New Balance.

One of my friends had a baby girl and had the naming ceremony (Brit Bat) yesterday. His wedding was the first Jewish wedding I had attended and his daughter's naming ceremony was the first Brit Bat, I have attended.

I went to another kids birthday party yesterday. Too Funny.
