Shoe Update

So the second pair finally arrived today!  The color is better in person than online.  But once I put them on, the arch of my foot hurt.  It almost felt like it was a little too far back for my foot.  I'm wondering if that goes along with the "barefoot" style, or if they're just not for me.  I wore one of each shoe around for about an hour.  I couldn't even tell I had the Pace Glove's on!  So once I found that those were comfortable I wore both Bare Access Arc 2 for another hour.  I could tell the one I had on for two hours started to feel more comfortable, but at times it still didn't feel right.  I think it has too much arch support for me, but after reading reviews, others seem to really like that about the shoe!  I didn't notice that much more cushioning, but then again I wasn't doing much in them.  The Pace Gloves may be a tad too big, so when I go to return the other pair I'll try on a 1/2 size smaller just in case.  I'm excited to have new shoes for crossfit.  I keep going on my toes for some of the weightlifting, so maybe this will help me out!

I skipped tonight because I technically worked out twice last night (I stayed for the beginners and ended up doing their WOD with my friend),  My arms are a little sore and today had push ups and pull ups, no thank you!  I went for a short two mile run.  I have off tomorrow (and Monday, yay!!) so my plan is to go at 7:30 or 9:00 in the morning.  Then it's off to the Poconos for the weekend.  Two days of snowboarding will be a nice change in workout.
