Orienteering 31:07 [3] *** 3.3 mi (9:26 / mi)
2c (injured) (sick) shoes: Brooks Running 3

This just is not my winter. This morning I broke my toe :-(. It is now a lovely deep purple color with magenta highlights. It is my fourth toe, though, and CSU training also had dinner tonight (thanks Alex and Ed!!), so I taped it to the third toe and decided to see how it would do. The first 10 minutes was ok. There was some pain but nothing that I couldn't live with. The next 10 minutes was quite painful and I started thinking about stopping, which was a problem because it meant I wasn't thinking about where I was. The last 10 minutes was agonizing.

Strength 10:00 [3]

Part of my normal abs workout until the exercises that in gymnastics and swimming they would make us point our toes during. Apparently it is very difficult for me to not point my toes during these exercises and pointing my toes is incredibly painful right now, so I skipped these. Then later I did a very small amount of upper body stuff and some extra abs with Presto lying across my chest. 40 extra pounds does in fact make a difference.

Running 55:48 [3] 5.9 mi (9:27 / mi)
(sick) shoes: Brooks Running 3

Running the rain with Presto. I planned to run to lab and then go on a river run. However, I got to lab and discovered that I didn't have my ID with me and so I couldn't get in. Grumble. I sort of hung around a bit hoping someone would be going in and out but realized this wouldn't be especially helpful as I still wouldn't be able to get into my lab without my ID, so I turned around and went back home for my ID and then ran back to lab to reseed cells for my mating movies. It was rainier, windier, and colder than I expected, but Presto and I headed off for the river anyway and did the Eliot-River St. loop. The wind was blowing so hard it was hard to move forwards at times and the rain was hitting hard enough that it was quite painful. I don't think that everything falling out of the sky was in fact rain. Presto was freezing by the end.

Nerve glides and back extensions and then dry clothes, lunch, and back out in the rain to go to lab. Hopefully the movies will work this time.
