I can tell a big difference in running to work, while focusing on my time. I'm cautiously optimistic on my times for next year. As I stated before, I recently got a new mp3 player and will splurge on some new shoes next year. I think you are supposed to change shoes every 1,000 miles. I've had these shoes for about a year and have ran around 2,000 miles in them and my feet are feeling the pain!

I'll be running in Hawaii next week, so hopefully I'll be able to post some nice pics.
