I had my calves scraped and worked on yesterday and I could tell this morning. I rode the struggle bus the entire way. We stopped at every drinking fountain. Every square inch of me was soaked with sweat. HOT!!!!!!

9 miles on the road. It didn’t feel as hot or humid today. I ran by myself. I gave myself permission to go slower and I felt SO much better! And I took a ton of salt pills.
