Well, this was my first time out after the marathon.  About time!  My toes were so bad that I needed a break.  While in CA I went to a running shop there and they had one of those machines you stand on and they try to fit you with the best shoe for your foot.  Well, they moved me from the Brooks Adrenaline to the Brooks Defyance and I went from a size 10 to a 10.5.  I've gone from a 9.5 last Spring to a 10.5!  I guess my feet are getting bigger as I grow older.  Well, my toes are much, much better!
