I started my day with some jelly beans. They're part of a balanced breakfast.
Yesterday I got in a 10 mile run. I'm pretty psyched about that. Yesterday was a day where I had to make the time to go for a run. On top of that I was not feeling motivated. I chose a long loop that started with hills and ended with the Rail Trail. It was a pretty good run.
My run can be broken into three parts.
Part 1: My shins, my shins, my shins are on fire.
The first two miles were bad. My shins burned. I walked a lot. I wanted to quit. I kept making myself go just a little bit longer. Finally, at the top of a big hill, my legs loosened up and started to feel better.
Part 2: I love this. I can run forever.
Luckily, this was the longest section of my run. My legs felt good. I didn't need to walk. I got to enjoy the beautiful weather and scenic run. This part ruled. This is why I like running.
Part 3: I'll just run when I can. Ow.
The last couple miles I had to do some walking. My hips were tired and ached. My legs, ankles, and feet were sore. I just kept going.
10.16 miles!
Aftermath: Everything from the waist down is cramping... But, I did it... But, ow...
