Ran 6.25 with Paul this morning along the shoreline. It was probably in the low 70's and more humid than Utah, but not uncomfortably humid The first mile was on a trail on lava rock. The trail was clear of lava rock but had "lava sand" on it, which I discovered was quite rough and painful when I fell one mile into it. I scraped both palms of my hands, my shoulder, hip, knee and ankle on one side. Dang! There is still lava sand in the wounds. So I got up and we kept going. We ended up running on about every surface there is: loose sand, compact sand, water, rock, lava rock, road, grass. Our pace was slow, about 10 minute pace.
We went to the other side of the Big Island and did a couple of hikes, about 6 miles of hiking and walking, 4 of them through and around a volcanic crater, which was awesome. So I am going to count that as 3 miles. I am so exhausted! Vacations aren't supposed to be this much work!
Asics (count it as 25 miles - lava wears down the shoes) |
