Mother nature beat the piss out of me this morning. Got pelted with hail the size of marbles for about 10 minutes straight. I look like someone emptied a cartridge of paintballs on my shoulders and arms.
splits: 8:47 9:08 9:18 7:43 (that last 0.1 mile) 117 ft elevation gain

My legs have felt super heavy for the last couple weeks. I think I'm gonna do a medium run (10 or so) on Saturday, then shut 'er down until Grandma's. Maybe do a mile or two the day before the race. 5 days of rest sounds amazing right now.

I don't think I have a the balls to make the switch to Tailwind this Saturday. Need more time to experiment with the powder-to-water ratio. Too strong and I feel bloated and gross, too weak and I have to piss every 20 minutes. Gu it is. Forecast looks hot, humid, and rainy.

Smart move.
I love Tailwind, but you have to find the mix that's right for you.
I prefer it weak, so I just put one scoop in the same hand-held that you have.
today I bought a pair of boston 6s and adios 3s. I loved my old adios, but I thought I would try out the bostons for running and keep the adios for chill stuff. well I ran in the bostons today and they felt clumsy and loose to me. I dunno. I remember I had size 10 in my old adidas and then i got 10.5 in the adios which was perfect but I feel like maybe I needed a size smaller in the bostons to back to a 10?

I've worn Boston's for a while now and they've always been the type of shoe that hugs your foot and requires a break in period for them to feel right on me. Are they the newest version 7s? I have a pair of those that I've only just tried on but they do seem to run slightly larger than the 6s.
