AM: Anytime in Columbus gym TM - WU, 5mi. cutdown 9.5mph to 10.2mph, CD.  20 minutes of lifting - squats, 1-leg deadlifts, core.  New shoes - Ravenna 7.  These were the second shoes I tried on after surprisingly trying on the new Adrenalines and immediately feeling a wierd stiff/rub spot on the inner toebox left foot.  Adrenalines have been awesome with every other pair I have ever worn, so I was surprised.
