Long May You Run

9 miles 1:16:24  8:29 ave.  Liberty Park 95° wood chip trail.  Nice hot day, tough to go 10 miles in these temps and 9 was plenty tough.  I sure enjoyed the fountain in the southeast corner at the end of my run.  Bee sting on my second toe, one of the hazards of running in Crocs.  A few times I jumped out the chip trail and ran along the grass next to it.  I must have scooped up a bee into one of the large vents along the front of the shoe.  Everything is fine now, no negative results.  At first, I thought it was one of the wood chips poking me but it persisted so I kicked off my shoe there was a bee glommed on the end of my toe stinging away.

4.65 pm miles.  Can't remember which Crocs I wore so I'm leaving out the shoe miles.  These runs were incredibly tough for me, like one of, or possibly the most difficult runs in a long long time.
