Ran through a fantastic thunderstorm this morning. To the south and west were the biggest thunder bolts. Then they started coming from the east. It started raining as I was coming to the end of mile three so I turned around there not wanting to be caught far from home when a big storm hit. There were some big bolts above me in the clouds but none ever did hit anywhere closer than 5 miles or so. And by the end of mile 5 the rain had stopped. So once I got back to the start I went out again to finish my 10 miles. Avg pace 8:56. I have some tightness/discomfort/pain on the inside of my left shin. It doesn't bother me during a run, but I feel it during the day. I hope it doesn't get any worse. 30 more miles to go this week. I'm going to run 5 tomorrow, 20 on Friday, and 5 on Saturday. That will finish of my 50 mile week. |
