I have fit issues anyway - among other things, long toes, so that a shoe that fits my actual foot is much too small for the length of my toes. For years I'd worn shoes that fit my feet and put the arch in the right place. I've had custom orthotics for maybe 4 years now, but never quite put it together that I could maybe go to a larger shoe, until this past fall. Now, every pair of shoes I get is bigger than the last pair. I'm not convinced my feet are actually getting bigger though, it's more that I've always had to compromise on fit, and I've just completely revised the compromises I'm making. I wore an 8-1/2 for years - my current running shoes are 10 Wide and I may yet go to a 10-1/2 Wide for my next pair - the hiking boots I bought this winter are a size 9 men's. Elephant feet!

Anyway I woke up this morning sore all over and it didn't improve after Pilates and Yoga classes. So I just wound up doing a very relaxed 4 mile recovery run. It seemed like a good opportunity to test oat milk in my hydration bottle. I'm not sure... it seemed to sit in my stomach like food, not like a beverage. The jury's still out.

Hope you feel better Urlea, be careful! Pneumonia is nothing to mess with. Great job you all!
