Thank you Grog.

I guess to answer some of my own questions would be this:

I went to the running store here in town to purchase my shoes, so I think they are ok.

My timing might be off (perhaps two weeks? I can't remember for sure). I could be doing to much to fast. That is entirley possible. However, I have been trying to run for a few minutes then walk a few and repeat. My last time out was for a total hour. I did an out and back.

Maybe what I am calling pain might be better classified as soreness. There was immediate relief after I took my cold bath. I did need to be off my feet though because my legs sort of ached.

One good thing from this last outing was I was more able to adjust my stride and make it much shorter so I would not be working as hard. I was actually trying to bring my heart rate down because I have been at my max ever since I have been out.

I also have been doing like a pre run walk of about 5-10 minutes and same upon return.

I just wanted to say my response has been delayed due to assisitng in the Ford Iroman Triathalon of St. George. Yesterday and night was very busy.

Thank you,
