The weather was perfect on my run today. I decided to do my long run today because I am leaving tonight for a weekend kayaking trip. AP: 10:02 Fastest Mile: (Mile 11, 9:25) Slowest Mile: (Mile 10, 10:15). My knee didn't bother me (thank goodness). I ran the Rail Trail and it was beautiful. Saw a couple of wild turkeys but no deer this time. I had a GU emergency at mile 7.30. I became ONE with the forest as I scampered up an embankment hollering "Get out of my way squirrels!". I was hoping I wouldn't fall down the ravine on the other side and get covered with spiders. I made it! But it was close. You don't mess around with a GU Pooo. Once my emergency was over I poked my head out of the forest and looked up and down both sides of the trail to see if the coast was clear. It was. I couldn't believe I pulled it off without being spotted. Thank goodness I've learned to prepare myself for the hygiene aspect of GU emergency's like this one (put a handful of tissues in your pocket before heading out). Hope I didn't gross anyone out. See you on Monday. |
