Running the mountain roads

I am staying at the hotel Associa in Takayama with my family this weekend. I just couldn't face the disappointment of missing another run so I slipped my running gear in the car with out anyone noticing. Right after we checked in I threw on my training clothes and said "see ya"! to the girls. It wasn't untill I got out the door that I remembered the hotel is about 3km up a big hill on the way a bigger hill. Whatever direction I took I was going to be running a hill. I was scheduled to run 60 minutes but since I was trying out my new Nike Free 5.0's (thank you Santa ) I thought I would start with 15 min. out and see how I felt about it. After that I just kept adding 5 more minutes untill I got up to 45 min. Quite a surprise as I figured the hills would kill me. Actully they did. I had to slow down and my over all average pace was in the mid 7's or about 1 minute slower per km than I usually run. The new shoes are very different and really point out how much I still heel strike. I've been trying to follow the chirunning principles and thought I had a good mid foot strike going. That's what they are supposed to do for you though. Teach you to run like you are bare foot.

Todays run

Ive been hanging in there with my jogging and think I might actually be able to make it through the 10km in Inuyama in under 1:15.
Well hopefully better but its going to take patience to run slow and not get injured.
anyway heres this
