O-training 1:26:37 [2] 8.65 km (10:01 / km) +320m 8:27 / km
Sad to miss Pawtuckaway training weekend but had to go to Harriman to vet my courses this weekend. Woods are turning colors already since it's been so dry; blueberry bushes turning brown on high ground, die bushes, die. Normally, I'm big a fan of blueberries but running through them is just a pain in the butt. But, I went through some really lovely parts of my course today, just need to pat myself on the back for this section. Now I'm worried I'm being too nice for the Highlanders.
Funny thing happened today: I grabbed two of my O-sneakers that are the same brand and by accident I grabbed two right foot ones, and only discovered this once I was ready to go out in the forest. Ooops. Thank goodness I didn't grab two of the left foot ones. Because these shoes are so awesome though, I was able to run in them as is without much problem, only my big toe was slightly bothered. Now the bigger issue emerges: which pair do I log my mileage on??
