Published distance was 9.4k, but I added plenty of bonus mileage to turn it into 14.5k. Aghhh!!!! Well, I did say I wanted to get my money's worth after the long drive... Besides a bruise on the back of my leg a couple inches above the ankle, only my left knee is a little sore.

Head has been congested since Thursday, but it didn't really affect me today - basically fell apart navigation wise about halfway through...

Blue - Splits

Today was Roger & my 18th wedding anniversary, and I didn't even remember it until 2 days later!

Bought no fabric, not even 1/4 yard while in Lancaster area of PA - unless you count the Woolrich top I bought. Saving myself for Mary Jo's the end of June.

Groin very painful for 24 hours - could hardly push off when walking. Then it suddenly felt better - well, as suddenly as 4 Advil & 3 glasses of wine could hit the spot. :) Just residule soreness left as of 8:30 PM. Off to Lancaster for fabric shopping tomorrow - another day off running is just as well.

A run during spring break is a bonus run since I don't usually get motivated to run regardless of how nice it is outside. Possibly the fumes from varnishing the front door & the subsequent headache got me out the door...

Ran to the bike trail at George Mason & 4 Mile Run, walked to Columbia Pike, and then ran 5 min/walked 1 minute out to a mile past Bluemont. Wind in face the whole time & felt like I was wearing lead shoes.

Turned around & wind had died - no push from behind! Outbound was 4404 & inbound with the hill climb was 4415. Splits (only inbound recorded): 945 (mile) 525 519 505 506 (halves).

Left knee hurt going down the first hill. Left groin aching at mile 5. Will ice tonight.

Pushups (g): 30

Weight Monday morning: 188
