Provo, UT 6:45 am

Pace: 8:21

I got new shoes yesterday. I had ordered them online and wasn't sure they would make it to Boise before I left, so I had them shipped here. But I left my old shoes, with the Nike+ sensor on them at the office. So, last night I looked through my backpack for an old sensor. I found the one from when my other iPod got ripped off and was able to sync it with the receiver on my iPod. I was very proud of myself. My wife said "yeah, you're a genius, now go to bed."

I ran from the Residence Inn up to Will's Pit Stop and during the first mile my left foot was hurting near the arch. That got me worried about my new shoes (they are the Brooks GTS8, I had been wearing GTS7s). But it went away pretty quickly and didn't come back. So all is good.

 The rest of the run was good. I met up with Matt at Will's and ran the usual Provo route down 9th East to State and in to work at Springville. When we arrived, my wife was already in the office with my work clothes and bagels for breakfast. How cool is that?
