While spectating the race, I took a bunch of photos which I am sharing on Flickr:

Hope my running friends enjoy the pictures!
I did get a little running in today, moving around the course to try to catch the runners at various points. I used this chance to test running with my new Deuter backpack. I enjoyed wearing my Vibram FiveFingers (I seem to be drawn to wearing these when it is dank and soggy outside). I saw at least three race participants wearing VFF.

Here is an almost magical treatment for top of foot pain caused by this kind of tendonitis:

I've fixed most of the discomfort with the huaraches, but the lacing is still tricky to get "just right" and comfortable. I'm not sure I want to deal with that on race day. As I mentioned in RunAmoc running moccasins from Soft Star Shoes, I'm still looking for the perfect minimalist running shoe.
I had a rare weekend day of freedom (thanks honey!), so I drove down to Lloyd Clarke Sports here in Gainesville to try on some Newtons. I discovered that Lloyd Clarke has Newtons AND Vibram FiveFingers in stock, so I got to try them both.
Here is what I bought:

After watching Last of the Mohicans I was primed and ready to run in my new moccasins.
I ordered the "RunAmoc - LITE red" with street sole (2 mm).
Here are pics and what I think of the RunAmoc:

I guess this means I will have to continue posting about running... which means I will also have to keep running... so really this is a motivational tool as well.

Why I switched to the Google Chrome web browser

I tried Google Chrome and it does not have this issue. On my slower computers I now use Chrome to help keep my web browsing a pleasant experience.
