Another day back in the saddle (although I'm not on my bike). It's a bit gusty out as we have a front heading our way in the next day or so, but the weather was fine. Low to mid 50's I'd say. I had a desire to cut the run short early on as my hip was hurting and my head is aching for about the 20th consecutive hour, but I fought through it. Small victories.
Keeping me company today were some choice selections from Sneaker Pimps, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins and some pre-Dark Side Pink Floyd. It was a nice mix. I ran for a solid 35 minutes and did a little cross training before, so I feel good about the effort. I haven't checked into the marathon program yet, but that schedule will come soon enough.
Overall the body is feeling pretty well. I haven't gotten much of an endorphin rush yet, that sometimes elusive and much sought after 'runner's high', but I guess that only means I'm not working hard enough. It will come. In the meantime, I work, build and clear my head. It's good to have an outlet.
Willie, I hope your leg is getting better. Do they make snowshoes in your size?
