Run 1: w/Court at OC 12:00; recovery/easy effort run while helping pace 2 x 2mi repeats; run form drills; 85 degrees with 18-30 mph SSW.  HOT and high allergens (sore throat; eyes; nose).  Calf still sore.  Did finally get some sleep (9 hours).

First run in Boston Boost = highly recommend if like a lower profile, more cushion, fast feeling shoe!  Did have to go with the 1/2 size up as the 10.5 felt cramped in toe box.  These shoes will be the perfect alternate training shoe to the Adios Boost 2.  I could see this being my marathon shoe.

Run 2: 4:30 pm at Hefner with JB, JH, Byron, Scott Smith and GF, Jazz, and later  Blake.  Wind died down at 5-8 SSW; DP 46; 86 degrees and full sun; warm and sweaty afternoon.

Everyone had their own agenda today.  JH and I did easy running with 7 x Fartlek (1:00-1:20) on the way back.  My mile paces were: 5:50, 5:34, 5:47, 5:35, 5:10, 4:21 (w/JB), 5:11.   Had a little fun blowing by a teen on his skateboard.  Think he was surprised to say the least.  My left arch area still hurting some and wore CEP sleeves due to left calf soreness.

I ran these in Boston Boost which are now certified as "amazing" in my rating.  Cushion is just right for easy running but can handle the fast paces and not feel clunky; only 1-day down in trying them out but predicting good things.  Overall nice day of running with many good friends and feeling in a better mood.  Now if the weather would cool off some...
