Sunday's Drag

OK, Sunday's run.  I felt worse to start off, but figured I was doing a lot less miles so... I headed out to the snomo trails around here.  Crap.  I was feeling bad and going to have to work really hard; the footing just sucked.  After 3.5 hard miles, I came to a spot where a neighbor had been doing some logging.  The tracks of the vehicles were packed hard.  Traction!  The elation of some easy running made me actually smile.  Then, just 1/4 miles of that, the vehicle had plunged through the ice where I would have crossed the river.  I looked for another place for a bit, but needed to be back by 9am to get to the Snow Squall on time.  I turned back, when I reached the end of the hard-packed tracks, I stopped.  I stood looking from the good stuff to the bad.  I don't care if it seems like running on a track, I turned and ran back and forth till I was nearly out of time.

Unfortunately, my GI issues were worse on this run.  Arghhh!
