After dropping the van off for some work, I unloaded the stroller and Jack and we went for our longest run ever.  I need to cut down the straps, because they are too loose, and the little wiggle-worm was thrashing all around, flipping over, and standing up backwards looking at me while I'm running down Legacy.  He's so cute.  Between that and him throwing toys out, we had a pretty slow go until he fell asleep 5 miles in.  But then it was time to head south into the wind with the stroller that acts like a sail.  Dinner wasn't sitting very well either, so the miles were pretty slow.  That's all right, I need to get in lots of  LSD.

I think the omnis are bothering my rt ankle.  It was stiff last night and this morning.  I wonder what has changed.  I've been running in that model shoe for 2+ years without any ill effects, but the last two times...  I don't mind getting out of that shoe, except the miles are still low.  It's a good thing I got them on clearance, or my price per mile would be unreasonably high.  I imagine they'll be fine for lawns or hiking.

I love that you take your kids on runs. I can just see him standing up. At one time when I would run with my double stroller, they would both stand up giving the Yacht effect. My pace per mile was about the pace we went uphill on striders 10 mile, a basic walk:)

Kam thanks for the advice with my sore calf/shin. I will try the grass running. This whole soreness is making me a little sad. I hope it resolves soon
