I thought my pace would have been a bit slower than 11:07 since my average HR stayed around 70%, and I was purposefully making the effort to slow down. Guess that means my fitness continues to improve.

I wore my new Pegasus 25 shoes today. I'm not sure I'm all that happy with this version of the shoe. It feels quite a bit different to me. My heels were a little achey, and I'm not even a heel striker.

Aside from the shoes, my left ankle and left hip flexors are acting up again. Sometimes, I think a slower pace changes running mechanics enough to cause things to ache that otherwise don't at a quicker pace.
