Around a mile and a third this morning, about half of what I intended, but I had my first run where the legs felt really dead and when I began climbing the third substantial uphill, it just made sense to slow down and walk the rest of the way home.

no sex talk please.
~2 ish mile hike with the girl and her new bf. they left me behind, of course. i gave them space and needed the extra time as my lungs are expelling wonderful gobs of phlegm.
I was just reading last night that tight shins cause the toe dragging and I immediately tought about you so you might want to look into it.6.8 miles yesterday.
Started out barefoot but dragged my dang toe again! Three times in the first three miles! Three!!! Cut the tip of my big toe again. No good. I threw on the Sockwas and finished my run.

I have the Titanic 25k on Sunday and may have to run it in my Vibrams until I get my barefoot mojo back. Just seems I can't run any distance barefoot without cutting the big toe on my left foot. I don't want to finish with blood on my feet. Wouldn't be a good showcase for barefoot running...
Was thinking about it and I think I figured out why I have been having so much more for problems lately for soreness. Now that I moved and have no gym I am not doing my full body workouts, which includes the leg workouts. I've noticed that despite staying right around 200lbs that I am getting "fatter" again. I need to start figuring out some exercise to go along with my running and cycling. Completely explains all my problems. I do have a couple of adjustable dumbbells, although at max weight they are only like 25-30lbs each. I do have a pull up bar too. Hmmmm, will have to put together some sort of a workout. Gotta keep the body in shape.Not sure why the legs have been so tender the last couple weeks. It's like I am a brand new runner all over again. Shouldn't happen that fast should it when you take a week off? So strange and weird. Maybe it's all the flat ground here, my body isn't getting all the variation it used to...???
Sorry Mike
