Early morning...my husband had to catch an early flight and is gone for a couple days so I needed to get a run in.  I just did a 7 miler at an 8:05 average pace.  I ran in my new ALTRA's and LOVED them.  I'm still not completely used to the completely flat shoes but these actually felt good.  I will definitely start wearing these more.

Do you think you will wear your altra's for a marathon?

Tara it's funny you ask because I've been debating it. I've only worn the shoes a few times. I love them but I'm nervous to wear them for a long fast distance. I think I am going to but I will see what happens with my training in the next few weeks. Do you run with Altras?
