Butterfly goes for a run

RUN 6 miles in 53.5 miles
BIKE COMMUTE 9.5 miles

Another cool morning, actually wore a long sleeve shirt and light gloves! Has anyone told the weather that it's MAY?! Peonies are starting to bloom, so it should be warmer out. Right?

It was a great run. Ran to LP like I did last week but extended my intervals to 1 or 2 sides of the park instead of the 1 I did last week. Today the Garmin had only 1 battery hash so I spent some mental energy concerned with whether or not the garmin was going to be able to finish the run. I did.

Still some minor discomfort on the left shoulder, still think it's from the Camelbak.

Tested my new recovery nutrition today, drank half a serving of the mix while cooling down on a dog walk. Drank it kinda fast. Didn't taste like much of anything. Some minor gut discomfort but since it came on so fast I'm thinking I drank too early or too fast.

While getting dressed for the run, I got another look at the pileup of shoes in the closet. Most all running shoes, and I realized I needed to do an inventory and check mileages.
From the Adrenaline 14's: HotPink has 607 and the Caribbeans have 535 miles
From the Adrenaline 15's: Lotus has 425 and the Hawaiians have 89.

I'm currently running in the 15's, the Hawaiians started only late February. But it looks like I should at least retire the HotPinks, keep the Caribs for short runs if anything, and look into replacing the Lotus in the next few weeks. I'm not feeling any problems with the shoes, just seeing a closet clog!
