Notes
Portland river trail. This was supposed to be my only 20 miler. It was really feeling good. Battling back pain Wednesday and Thursday this week though. It was a bit uncomfortable the first 11 of this run. It started tightening worse during the 12th mile. Down hills seemed to make me the most uncomfortable. Running down the long hill from the Portland High School back to the flats wrecked me. Thankfully I had parked near the ice cream shop. Obviously cut the run short. My back locked so badly by the time I got back to Ionia that I couldn't walk. I went straight to ER worried that something had slipped out of place. Not the case. Just a sciatic issue. Today, Saturday, I still feel as if I should be on crutches. Fuck
