7 miles this morning 11 miles this afternoon Easy paced runs trying to get back in the swing of things after a long weekend. I've got this bad side ache. Not only when I run but just walking around the house. I kind of felt it on my second and third legs of the Del Sol and then Monday on both runs then today. It's a pretty bad pain if it continues for two more day I'll have to go see a Doc. Saw TWO desert turtles this afternoon. One about a mile north of my house and one about one mile north of that. The first one scared me just as bad as I scared it. Then I saw the second from a far and came up on it from behind- it was just going to town eating on a bush. Then it saw me and hissed and went in it's shell. It's kind of cool seeing them. In a little over a year since we moved to this house I've seen 4 or 5 live turtles out in th reserve- and way too many snakes but we won't go there. |
