4 Miles!!!
I finally did it! I feel like I have been working up to the 4 mile mark forever. It was hard but I did it. I took two short walking breaks during the run because my legs were cramping. Probably need to add a bit more potassium to my diet. Another funny thing, my feet kind of fell asleep by the end of the run. Maybe I had my shoes too tight? I am a little scared about it so if anyone has any insight please let me know.

congrats! that is pretty awesome...i dont think i have ever ran 4 miles in my life !! (at least not yet)
Angie, First of all, congrats on the 4 mile run. Fantastic!! I e-mailed you a couple of pages that might give you some ideas as to why you might be getting cramps and the numbness in your feet from other runners having the same problem. Seems most of them have the problem occur after about 3 miles. Lots of suggestions, from changing socks, tightness of shoe laces or shoes etc. One suggestion was to run in your old shoes and see if this happens and then you will know whether it is your new shoes that are bothering your feet. Your feet swell up when you run so you may need a half size bigger shoe but then you did have them fitted so I would think that the salesperson would have taken that into consideration.
Hope you find a solution. love you!
