Pam's route - 34 degrees

Its been a minute since I've run outside.  The "field" had no trespassing signs.  This felt SO hard.  I haven't been sleeping well at night and felt terrible.

My alarm didn't go off, so I ran after work.  It was chilly, but the sun was shining.  I work my new orthotics.  This felt VERY hard.  Out of shape!

Met with PT Mark Peterson about long time peroneal niggle.  I got new othortics from USS.  I've been working on my strengthening my feet.  I think it is helping.
