Day 252, Activity

5:30pm


Run at Peace Valley Park.

14.59 miles, 2 hours and 39 minutes.

I walked a lot. My goal was 16 miles but it just was't going to happen. I was right on track until about mile 8. My left knee was really bothering me. Also, it was raining when I started and there were massive puddles along the way, so I was basically running with wet feet from jump street. My legs have been sore from tabata squats on Monday (ugh, Monday!) and I think that had a bit to do with it. And I cut my pinky toe on my left foot yesterday morning. And my right big toe was killing me. Aragh.

17 miles in two weeks. If I can get that w/o killing myself I'm going for 18.
