7 miles is a lot

Trying to decide if I want to attempt a morning run vs going today. I’d like to go a little farther than 3, but my legs may need a little more rest. But then again I may easily find myself hitting snooze because my mornings suck butts.

[epilogue]

That's not even a real month!

I’m saying I have gone out for a run 13 days out of 23 days so far this year.

There will be an XXX/365 total posted on December 31st.

I’m keeping myself accountable here.

Do you have an overall goal? Like a certain number of days to hit? Or are you just tracking it?

Definitely get your butt sucked this morning. That's way better than running.

I didn’t do either.

3 miles in whatever.

87 miles so far in 2023.

Fun fact: Bardo Pond makes great music for a long run in the woods.

The answer is always "Do the thing now" in cases like this.

Yeah I wish I had. Just signed up for a 5k race with some friends, even though I’ve not been feeling the race urge.

The streak of 7's ends!

I did 4 today. At a very light, easy pace. Felt great.

Did 3.65, no walking. Was planning on doing 4.25 or 4.50, but out of nowhere my left calf started to feel kinda dead. After a bit I felt it in my thigh also. I eventually tried to speed up to give it some life, but it didn't help. I stopped running because I was afraid I was going to fall on my face

balance stuff that's led to some seemingly chronic back stuff. never say never, but running puts too much strain on me mortal coil

no surgery to fix the head/balance stuff. trying to stave off back surgery.
