[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fBh2qH4QbM&w=640&h=390] First time out with the Newton Gravity. Pretty interesting run, as the running style changes a bit. Ran the distance in what’s generally referred to as a front-foot running shoe. For the first three kilometers I went on in a relatively relaxed sub-5-minute pace.

2010 in Review
Ah yes… No end of the year without a proper review of the past year. 2010 started with a run on one of the beaches in Canun, Mexico. As I recall, it was a rough 6km run, which took me 40-something minutes. Rough, in the sense that I hadn’t really done the kind of training I do now. My fitness …
