This seems like a little too much wear on a shoe for 328 miles

Saucony Trigon Ride 5 with 328 miles

My other Saucony Trigon Ride 5s have lasted 530 miles before showing this much wear. I may have about 10% more road mileage (vs treadmill) than my last pair of shoes, but my last pair of shoes never reached this amount of wear.

    Hey, just found your blog through another one, and I love that your goal is to qualify for Boston BEFORE 40, not waiting UNTIL 40 to make qualifying easier. I hear so many people say “But just a few more years until I’m X, so that I can qualify,” and I just don’t have whatever gene is responsible for that attitude.

    I’m going to for it too, hoping to qualify this year at Wineglass. I just turned vegetarian a few months ago, and believe it or not, it has made me so much faster! I was expecting the polar opposite.
