Levy Trail Loop

The last time I held a pair of shoes directly responsible for an injury was in the fall of 1982. They were Onitsuka Tigers (now known as Asics). I ran easily and fast in them, but they hurt one of my knees in such a way that it took me six months to get over it. My verdict on these $30, great-feeling BCGs is still out, but before I went to bed last night noticed my left knee hurt in a way similar to thirty-three years ago. It still hurt this morning. Otherwise my legs felt fresh as I walked the Levy Trail Loop this morning in 32:06 wearing a pair of those old baby-blue shoes I walked the 50-mile race in (which have held up for walking remarkably well. Both pairs still feel nice).
