I had my first solid practice run after Ohme. Up until tonight I was simply too burned out to do anything. I went for a short walk in mid week, but that's about it. But I wasn't too worried. The same happened in the past. I'm usually like this after a big race. Plus, I have had enough experience to know how to restart my training to regain the competitive edge that I need to run a race. 

Tonight I added two fast runs up a 400 M hill to my regular 10.2 K run. 

I ran in socks. (See above.) They withstood the friction against the road.  There wasn't a single hole in each of the soles. Compared with split-toe minimalist shoes "MUTEKI" there was a greater feeling of freedom. They are lighter too. I should run in socks more often.
