RUN: 6.6 miles, 1hour?
DC and I did this run in the winter's first real snow!! All of 1.5 inches of it. And it was 34F at run start so the snow didn't last long :( Oh well.
The morning started off with me sleeping in until 5:10. So only a banana in the tummy, no coffee yet. My left calf was still hurting (1 on a scale of 10, really) but it was more of a lack of flexibility. The snow wasn't helping any since it forced me to push off differently.
By the zoo I was wanting quit, right at 4 miles. Keep going.
By the science center. By the dinosaur, by the skating rink, by the last turn off. Oh man did I want to QUIT. DC walked with me for a few seconds at one point. :( Walking? What?
My quads hurt. My head hurt. My back hurt. My calf hurt. My body wanted to quit but the mind didn't. Where have I heard this music before? Oh yes, Redman. Let's not go there again.
What was the mind saying this time around? STFU. HTFU. And Keep Going.
I finished, but oh man did that hurt.
