Ran 5 miles on the treadmill this morning in 44:00.  Thank you so much Jeff for the running tips.  I worked on shortening my strike, standing taller, and forefoot strike.  It felt good other than I could feel a blister beginning below my big toe.  I understand that my feet muscles and skin will strengthen over time as they grow accustomed to this running style.

No problem, I love to talk running. It does feel different at first but the gains in efficiency and injury prevention are worth the short term issues with the changes (which really aren't bad, just a matter of making the form a habit).
