The results from yesterday's "long" run

I ran farther yesterday than I had gone in almost a year. I was expecting to feel sore today. I actually feel really good, with one notable exception. There was one point while on the trail that I got distracted by a lame song on my Sansa and landed on a very pointy rock. I didn't feel any effects from it yesterday afternoon, but this morning, it's definitely injured. There's a bruise and a bump and even a tiny cut. It's not bothersome while in my flip flops, but barefoot I feel it when landing on my heel.

The moral of this story: Keep lame songs off your mp3 player, they can be dangerous.
