Two weeks back, after posting 10K everyday for 7 days, my quads, IT bands and the right knee was a mess. To give them some rest, I stayed off the running trail for a whole week. Went back to the trail this afternoon hoping to put in a short run to test out how the recovery has been. And while those unsuspecting muscles and joints were not watching, quietly put in a half marathon in 2 hours and 10 minutes. I am pretty sure I am going to pay for this tonight 🙂

Slight threat of rains and the Chalupa group quickly thinned down to three today…

Have a very full day today. So finished my run this morning in pitch darkness on the dirt roads near my house. We shall not talk about what was that cold thing I felt in my feet and we shall certainly not talk about what I might have stepped into that make my shoes stink to high heaven 🙂

But I did achieve a first time feat – a week of seven consecutive (daily) 10K runs…

Another 10K this morning…

Slow 10K trail run in a breezy Fall afternoon…
