Started out with the intention of running a very slow 18 miler. The kids were at grandmas and I had a few hours to kill. The first couple of miles felt good. At 2.5 miles, I got a call from my wife saying that she spun out of control on the freeway and totaled her car. I turned back for home so I could go pick her up. Running a couple of miles at 5k pace the day after a race wasn't what I was planning. Ran the last 2.5 miles at 6:00/mile pace. Went to pick her up and she was surprisingly unhurt. Her car, on the other hand, is quite a mess. I really wanted to get the mileage in today but sometimes you have to sacrifice the running for real issues. |
