D.N.A

Today was a pretty good day at work. My group was invited to a tour of D.N.A (Department of Nike Archives). It is basically a museum of all things Nike...very cool to see some of the original Nike shoe designs / models. Some of the early running shoes made by Bowerman looked like ballet slippers..basically nothing to them. Also, very interesting to see the evolution of shoes and advances in design / materials when you get a chance to examine shoes that were considered "cutting edge" 30+ years ago.

Today was a light training day due to the massive dose of suffering I'm subjecting myself to tomorrow. 25K trail run race....15.5 miles.....I can almost taste it.......uugh. Come back for a post-race report some time tomorrow.....it ain't gonna be pretty.
