Notes

had a hard time dragging my sorry butt out of bed this morning, my arms and chest still hurt and I am generally exhausted all over. didn't really want to go for a run but hoped that I would feel better once I got going. At about 1 mile I was thinking about turning this into a walk and calling it a recovery day, but convinced myself that I would probably loosen up in another mile or so. At 2 miles I started to think I was going to feel better. At three miles I knew that it wasn't going to get any better. glad to get to the turnaround and hoped for a breeze in my face and the sun at my back but nothing seemed to help. by the end it was all I could do to maintain a shuffle. Had to fight the urge to quit for the whole run. today was a lesson in suffering, I beat it.

At no point in todays run could it have been considered fun or enjoyable. Hopefully tommorow will be better.
