39, cool, sunny, extremely fucking windy. Bikilas.

This was meant to be my No More Frakking Around run in a push to get up to 25 miles for the week, but the weather made a hash of that. I planned on three laps around Castle Island but the wind on the causeway was beyond ridiculous. I couldn't run in a straight line and was basically running sideways, which wasn't fun for my right ankle. I decided to head inland, but sure enough that meant running into the wind for several miles, though it was better than being out on the water.

I finally decided to just do laps around the track, so that I'd at least be changing directions a lot. Then I misjudged the distance home and ended up doing an extra half mile. Add in that it was like 45 degrees outside when I left the house and then it dropped, so I ended up underdressed and my right hand and most of my arm are numb.

I had a slight twinge in my left hamstring, but I don't have time to stretch so I hope that's just the wind. Otherwise no problems and a good pace, at least.
