Houston

Notes

14 hours driving yesterday so no run, or much of any exercise. I'm down in Houston (city of Spring, actually) to visit the older sister.

As is prone to happen when I go from cold to warm temps, my legs don't like it. I got shin splits right away on the sidewalks of the suburbs. I tried stopping but that was only temporary relief. I did end up finding a grassy dike to run on which eased the pain and awkward running. Still, I basically felt like I wasn't a runner today. Maybe felt better as I was finishing (or maybe just the thrill of being done), and I did some form drills to feel better about my efforts today.

**I suppose it was nice to run in warmer conditions, though the sun wasn't really out. As you can imagine, I was the least dressed person around, even saw one older guy wearing a parka with gloves on.
