Day 15 - Couldn't do it...

Distance - 4 miles
Time - 28:19
Pace - 7:05
Conditions - 70 degrees, humid, calm and dark

So much for taking a day off.  I just couldn't do it.  I have become completely addicted to running again.  Funny how something that can cause so much pain can become so addictive.  Happens to me every time.  I didn't go for a run until about 10pm tonight.  It was very peaceful out there tonight.  The humidity made it really tough to breathe.  I am not ready for this heat.  The bugs were thick too, pretty sure I swallowed a few.  I was pretty close to crapping my pants too, which makes for an uncomfortable run.  I got lucky because I could have hurt myself within the first half mile of the run tonight.  I forgot about the half mile turn just outside of the Velt having huge ruts and i stepped right on the edge of one.  I stumbled but managed not to wipe out or roll my ankle.  Other than all of that it was great!  haha!  Oh well, makes for a more interesting run.  Well, the shins felt alright tonight.  No worse or better than the past 12 or so weeks.  Day by day, step by step...
