Yesterday, I did 2 miles in my fives. Nothing from my calves at all until 1.3 miles - which is significantly better than last time I ran. I could feel the hardness of the road on the balls of my feet, but I wouldn't say it was uncomfortable.
I did rather make myself laugh though when I inadvertently ran across a patch of grass (it was very dark, and I thought it was a continuation of the pavement). It was quite a shock to feel the squidgy softness of the ground after that hard tarmac. At first, I thought 'yuck', but then I realised that being able to feel the ground under my feet is half the reason I bought the shoes in the first place! I just think it'll take a while to get used to it, and out of the habit of avoiding the muddy patches.
Calves a little sore today, but not as bad as I'd feared, and not a single other ache or pain from any of my joints - hips, knees or ankles - which is lovely.
