A couple Miles around the Pond to get ready for Mob Mile

ERA of WTF and “ Finding Joy” to keep on Fighting

Tonight is Mob Mile. Running a mile under the lights with Heartbreakers. Yesterday I picked up my bib and shirt. There is no turning back now. This morning I wanted to test my legs and mileage. I ran a mile around the pond. Of course Tiffany style, there were a couple of picture stops along the run. My body, more importantly my legs felt good. I felt strong. I stopped at a mile, My time was 10:57. The goal for tonight, my secret goal is to beat my morning time. When you run it’s you against you.

It was me against the 75 degrees of humidity before 6:30a.m. this morning. It was the reminder that summer is still here, she hasn’t left yet. My head is wrapped around fall and back to school. But that idea got slapped away this morning. I did a mile, then walked, run the next. My time was around 11:58. This girl was tired. And probably not fueled up correctly. In the sweat and heat, I thought my garmin tracked my time. I did something to it because my time is gone. Oh well, I’m glad I looked my watch to know where I was.

Doing mile number two, my knee felt a bit wonky. Rest, hydrate, and taking the anti-inflammatory are on the list before the 7pm mob run.
