Back in the saddle

Went running again today for the first time in eleven days. 4.4 miles with some hills, in 43:46. The last time I ran Fishermans Wharf-to-Fort Mason-to-Marina Green I hurt my foot and ended the run angry, discouraged, and in pain at 51:35. A few days later I got back out there and gave up after two miles because of the pain in my foot. A week ago I came to the office early to run but decided I really wasn’t feeling well, and this is my first run back from being sick.

It feels great, but I’m reminded of a couple important items.

Running may be good for people who eat taquitos from 7-11, but eating taquitos is not good for running.

Sunblock exists for a reason.

Time to hit the showers!
