PB 10K, NEW SHOES & SLEEP...

Friends,

Personal 10K best in a treadmill 46'50'' for 10K (started walking 5 mins), then, I assume should be real close to 44'...with my new running shoes, following Mike Maiers, suggestion about my overpronation issue, I bought Asics gel Kayano 15 and they were quite confortable on my first running yesterday.

Finally, I am not getting too much sleep, lately, due to workload and early training...and as Richard says is "the most important thing for good training/racing performance".

I attach two good articles about how sleep affects sport performance:
