Wanted to do 9.  At mile 7 my knee starting snapping again.  The first 3 times, I just kept running and it was okay after the initial shock of the snap.   After the 4th time, I had to walk.  Achy pain raidated up my quad.  That was around mile 8.  I walked 1/2 a mile and then ran the rest of the way home.  Felt good & thought the snapping was over until .05 miles from my house, and it started again.  Glad I've got the ortho appt on Monday.

I threw in the towel & did some upper body strength by raking dead thatch out of my lawn.   Got an awesome inner thumb blister!!  Not as awesome as my buccanner's 2nd degree burn blisters that opened up into weeping sores on his back from his terrific Monday at the beach.....but still awesome.

Now that the weather is warming up, I'm pleased to announce that there was plenty of fresh road kill to treasure on my run today.  Most notably were the  tortise and the hare.  Neither one of them are finishing that race :-)

I guess we won't be reading THAT bed time story tonight!

SOOO funny those boys. At least you have some good meds for your blister. Just another reason I hate raking!

Sorry about that darn stinkin' knee! I thought troubles were few in solla sollew :(
