I have just now managed to crawl away from home. Here it is already noon and I started out by slapping the pavement and going out for a 7 mile run. I had hopes of possibly making it 9 but I became quite aware after I hit mile five that seven was the max I would be able to go today. Ouch! I wasn't kidding about needing new running shoes! I had already bandaged two places on my feet and still I was feeling the effects of not having the proper running shoes. I am getting blisters and as much as I hate to admit it I might just lose the toenail on my left big toe. Yep. It's slightly sensitive and it seems to be turning purple. Not a good sign. I've had this before but it's been a long time. So no matter how I might want to put off buying new running shoes I really can't put it off any more.
So then after the run I knew I needed to get myself something to eat since I have a tendency not to be hungry after a workout but will crash if I don't eat. I have just finally managed to drag myself out of the house and get myself a small coffee and whole grain bagel at Panera Bread. It seems to have helped because I admit I was feeling very puny. I am taking advantage of their free wi-fi and hitting this keyboard as I munch away. I've also put together the beginnings of a grocery list and should grab those few things before heading home again. I know, I know. The running shoes. Maybe after the grocery store I will go ahead and make my way to the store and try on some new shoes. Then I can pick up a running belt with a water flask. I have been wanting to get one of those for a while now and I might as well make the time now.
Oops. That was the last of my bagel. Guess I'm good to get going now! Later.
