Had a solid week getting in the miles I had planned. Did a few body weight workouts as well, but sadly nothing with actual weights. I did wrap up the weekend knocking out a 5 miler with the TUFF run club — and though the pace was WAY faster then I would have done on…

Now that I’m back in North Carolina after a vacation in Scotland with my wife last week, I can’t help but reflect on the runner’s dilemma I faced before the trip: which pair of shoes to pack?! Sure, I could bring both trail and road shoes, but that would mean a bigger suitcase—and checking luggage…
