Ten miles

Double digits! This week we ran ten miles. Whew. It was kind of a rough one for me this time. I had a bit of a stomach ache (possibly from eating too much sugar goop too soon) and a pain in my right hip by the time I was done. But I made it through, and recuperated just fine by the next day. Some runs are going to be harder than others. At least my right foot has stopped giving me trouble! Getting rid of the hard thingie on my shoe seems to have done the trick!

Last week I forgot to update! It was nine miles and it went very well. As I was passing the seven mile marker, it occurred to me that I used to think that it would be fun to run the Bay to Breakers, San Francisco's annual race/costume party/rite of spring, but that seven miles was just too far! And here I'd just passed seven miles and had two more miles to go. I could run a Bay to Breakers! It would probably be the world's slowest time, but hey! I could run it. Already thinking of plans for next year....
