Training on trails for my 11 mile trail run is going to kill me. I tripped the other day so hard that my shoe flew off, almost stepped on a 4 foot black snake, and did you know that it's possible to bruise the bottom of your foot? I did not.

Verb the thought of you having nothing to show for that 3 hour treadmill session is making me sad. Sign up for a half at least. Get a shiny medal to wear in your wedding photos.
You have to pay better attention to the ground and your feet.
Maybe I don't have the attention span for runs over an hour.
It's possible. Don't get me wrong. I have hurt myself plenty of times, because I am not paying good enough attention, but I think I have sharpened up in my old age. The point is it's just a stupid reason to get injured.

Just got back from a 10km run. The most I'd previously been doing was around the 7km mark lately. Felt good, and I beat my personal best times from the 6km mark onwards - some by over 2 minutes, so I'm happy about that

Apparently that monster I saw on Saturday was someone's pet monitor lizard that outgrew its home. I posted it on FB and instantly a bunch of do-gooders were trying to guilt me into rescuing it because "the poor guy won't survive the winter." I hope a hawk ripped it to shreds over the weekend.
My wife's going out of town this weekend so after tomorrow I don't think I'll be able to run again until Tuesday. Maybe a short one if I can convince my daughter to ride in the trailer. Oh well...a little rest before the 6-hour race next weekend might not be a bad idea.
