Pretty routine 5-mile recovery run tonight on the TM as it rained outside (again). Had a little twinge around the left heel, which subsided as the run went on. But there's now a little rough spot or kink in the lining of my right insole in the LRM shoes (which I REALLY need to replace) and it's rubbed a nice blister on my right instep. I'll have to put one of those mondo Bandaids over that puppy before Saturday's 18-miler.
Legs felt good, and I overall felt much better after a solid nine hours of sleep.
Meanwhile, I'm getting ticked off watching the Olympic track team screw around. I blame the coach, who was selected by politics instead of on merit, and then pointedly cut out the single greatest track coach in American history (that would be John McDonnell if you haven't paid attention to American track for the last 30 years). John only has about 40 more national championships than that clown they took from Texas. |
