It was a long day of running errands and I got home at sunset but the CMTR "Decorate Yourself" challenge really needed to happen before Christmas, and there is a different 3-day challenge that can only be done on Christmas Eve, Christmas and Boxing Day. So I decorated myself for Christmas and set out backwards on 'Bent's commute route. I don't normally go into the woods alone at night but I figured if there was a Christmas axe murderer on the loose, this would improve the chances of my body being found. ;)
So now we know what happens when 'Bent meets a strange woman in tights in the forest at night. He says a perfunctory "Hi" and just keeps on riding his bike! I had to call after him to get him to come back and take a photo of me.(He didn't recognize me with my headlamp in his eyes.)
I tweaked something in my heel last Thursday during a fairly short run. Too bad - my foot had finally seemed to be improving after months of pain. I walked tonight to give it a break. It felt good enough to tempt me to try running again soon.
