Shoot for the Stars

ARSHS. Early early a.m. Weather seemed good at first but near the last mile of my run it really came down but more of a misty heavy rain. It was hard to run this morning because I was very tired and the wind was blowing hard. It was chilly. The wind and the rain did not help when I was runnning on the track. Switched direction on each mile. When I took off my jacket after about 1 mile I accidently stopped by stop watch so 1 lap or so was not accounted for on mile 1. Felt tired.

Game Farm Park. Semi early run. It felt pretty cold this morning. I wore my gloves while I ran. My R outside leg about my ankle felt a little painful when running but nothing major. Legs felt stiff this morning. Ran usual 3 loops around the park with headlite. Saw worker cleaning bathrooms and one guy walking off to the side where the cars park. Happy I increased my time each mile even though mile 2 to 3 wasn't as big, it was still an increase!

Game Farm Park. 7:30 a.m. When I woke up in it was rainning quite steadily. I wore my hat, long sleeve shirt, and pants. It took a lot to get me to get out of the warm dry car and into the pouring rain. I needed someone to run with me today to push me. I eventually got out so I could get it done with. I ran 3 loops but this time extended my route by running on the concrete wall along the river. It is basically my long route except not on the dirt trail. There were lots of puddles that i had to dodge and tip toe through but i couldn't avoid getting my shoes wet by the 2nd mile. Felt yucky to run with wet clothes but still was invigorating run. I saw some old guys walking their dogs. They were smiling as I ran by. I felt fairly good with the run. The rain just made it difficult.
