Squishy Seven

Running is getting harder.

Andrea and I didn’t start our run till 9pm. At the time there was a light rain, but it was short lived. The residual humidity left behind was near-suffocating.

I battled indigestion for the entire run. It is disgusting to eat the same dinner more than once.

Couple short episodes of knee pain, barely worth mentioning.

I ran with a headlamp. Near the end the weight of the unit started bothering me. There again, I was tired and EVERYTHING was pestering me. I need to be better prepared to wear a headlamp for an entire night. I’ll have a true test at Capt’n Karl’s night time trail 60k next month.

Thankfully my wonderful bride ran with me tonight and kept me from quitting. It was tough out there, but we got it done. One more four-miler and I get a recovery day.

Oh yeah, F-Houston!
