I'm not entirely sure why, but I am very, very tired today.

Got up to run, and running wasn't happening.  I ran 10 yards and had to stop.  I walked, stretched, and tried again.  My right quad was tight and my left knee was feeling wonky. 

I managed to run 1.5, stretch just a little, then run another 1.5.  My stiffness was going away, but I kept hearing a little nagging feeling in my knee and decided it wasn't worth it.  So I went inside and did 30 minutes on the elliptical to finish up 1 hour.  My agenda said 7 miles. not sure if I'll try to make up the missed miles or not.  It's my "easy" week, and I may just bag it.  Too much invested now to have an injury sideline me.

It's farmer day at school, so I get to wear my overalls.  I love farmer day.

Did you wear a possum fur hat with your overalls?

Take it easy with your knee.

Don't worry about making up any miles. Listen to your knee and enjoy your easy week. Did you wear your hair in braids?

QP - possum or not possum, good alternative plan on the workout. I have missed your daily adventures.

Stay Kool, B of BS Rools out

RAD- I hope the knee behaves too!

Bye-Wing- I wish I had a opossum fur hat. It's from lack of supplies, but lack of pelt-cleaning knowledge.

Terri- OF COURSE I wore my hair in braids. Is there any other way?

Brent- I've missed being on the blog every day. I've got to just take more time to do it.
