Last weekend I got a new pair of shoes; Mizuno - Wave Elixir 5 at The Running Room. I’ve never had a pair of Mizuno’s before but already I am liking the low sole and the generally fit of the show. My last pair, Nike Structure 12 were great, they had a little more support than these but it started to seem that the toe was a little too narrow which started to become noticeable after ~13miles. I haven’t broken past a 13 miler in these but already at ~10 they feel the same as when I first put them on.

In other news I’m running the Port Union 10km tomorrow, it should be a fun community run. As well next weekend I’m hoping to get out for the Niagara Ultra. It will be my first ultra, after only running two marathons. I am super excited for it though!

Is anyone else running the Niagara Ultra; or any other event in event? If so hit me up at jrdnshw@gmail.com

Wish me luck!
