great Mounts Misery and Joy 10 mi 01:50 10:57 pace
Fog. Rain. 60 degrees. Some mud. Few people. Solitary. Got stronger as the miles increased. I was thinking of Tim O. in VA... I'll stop now.

thanks for the good thoughts. Imagine Misery, except 5 times longer, with bolders ranging in size from a small dog to a car. Now repeat for 103.7 miles.

Ha. Skipped the parade with overcast skies and a light rain. Went right to the running store to pick up the two more pair of trail shoes i was talking about. It's like Christmas morning in my changing room. Never got that nap. Slept 9 straight hours overnight though. Unprecedented.

Holy shit. I biked. It was only because I felt a twinge in my left knee last night, so with a nighttime trail race this Saturday, I convinced myself (reluctantly...) to not run.

Problem is, I have a brand new computer at work (which is where I'd usually do it as I hate to be on anything larger than a phone at home...) and a plugin won't load. I think it'll work on the home laptop.

Perkiomen Trail 10.14 mi 01:26 08:29 pace
