~7M @ Snail Pace
Since yesterday was the first time I was able to walk normally, this morning was the first time I could attempt to run. I decided to man up and try to muster a few miles with the Dowd crew. Knowing I hadn't been able to get any movement since I returned from Hinson, I thought it would be a good idea to arrive early in time to warm-up a mile or so on my own time. I took off down Lexington creeping along in pain knowing that the down-hill wouldn't hurt half as much as the forthcoming uphill. I made it to Oriole and worked my way back up. The ten minutes it took to run .8M seemed ridiculous, but by the time we were ready to roll, I felt much looser.
A nice group showed up this morning, all fast people though, so I ignored the pain chatting it up from behind following the Colville Loop. Run DMC wisely turned back at East and I continued around the booty loop a little too long. I bowed out as we ventured past Queens. I was glad to shake the legs out a little, but turning back through Myers Park was not very pleasant. It hurt, that's all I can say.
