Nice recovery run Tuesday (5 Miles).
My feet were a little tender at first but smoothed out after a few miles.

The Blue Red Run is another 1/2 Marathon in Irving TX supporting Police and Firefighters.
Also what is pickle ball?

Steady 3.9km earlier in the week on a cool Autumn morning.
Almost overnight a healthy carpet of leaves has appeared along my usual running trail. -A much easier feel, although I think I prefer being able to see the underlying surface (bit like running on grass I guess, where there's probably more risk of landing on something unintentionally).
Enjoyable run though taken at a slower pace than I usually clock...

Pickleball is played similar to tennis, but on a smaller court, and with a wiffle ball and wooden paddles. It can be both hilarious and unpredictable, as you might guess with a wiffle ball. We have only played it twice, but experience with racquetball and tennis help a little.

I took it easy this week with only 3 days of running, for a total of 14.7 miles, all but 2 barefoot. I did do the usual spin biking and swimming, though.

When I was adding the miles to my chart, I saw that if I can run 250 more barefoot miles this year, I can break the 1000 mile barefoot mark for the first time. Could be hard to do with winter coming on, but I will keep it in mind for inspiration. Still, I've already got 992 miles all together, so I expect I will hit 1000 miles all total, including sandal and Sockwa runs. :barefoot:

About 30 miles this week including a few checking out some Luna Pacers on gravel trail. Next week will be light, too, as I have an unusual work week to be spent at the New York City Marathon Expo. I'll have to hope for a longer run on the 1st - avoiding the marathon hordes!
