Well, I've been a baaaaaaaaaaaaad little runner. I missed three days last week and I'm not even injured! Time to really buckle down again. I am still at a point where every once in a while I worry that I could revert back into a couch potato. MUST...RUN...EVERYDAY. Although, my excuse on Sat. was pretty solid--I spent the afternoon/evening in the hospital with Adam. (Only because all the urgent care places were closed for Easter, though. He just needed some antibiotics for a rather nasty lung infection.)
So 3 miles with Christine tonight, shod. It was SOOO fragrant. All the citrus trees out here are blooming their heads off, and the sweet, delectable scent envelopes you in its warmth. It's like nothing you've ever smelled before. Olfactory heaven. I've never witnessed anything like this anywhere else we've lived. Yummy. 1 more mile barefoot. Today was the first time I felt the urge to run fast barefoot. It just felt awesome and I wanted to stretch it out a little. BTW I had some tightness in my hips when I ran with my shoes on tonight, but there was no trace of that later when I ran barefooted.
