A new hat and sunglasses

Both of these two things helped me out on my 7 miler tonight. It was baking hot (although there was a stiff breeze in places), and so a nice new New Balance running hat and a pair of Sunwise wrap around shades came in very useful.

The run was good too. I felt strong and breathed well, but the last two miles were quite tiring on the feet. Especially the tendon on the inside of my left ankle - right where it joins the ankle.

I slightly twisted my ankle last Sunday on last week’s run, so I think it may be from that. Just to be on the safe side though I’m going to move Monday morning’s 3 mile easy run to Tuesday morning.
