Did a good strong 5.25 miles this morning. 3.25 speed intervals (6.0 to 8.5 mph), and 2 miles of incline intervals. First time in a while that a morning run felt good!
I did my ride this morning. And I almost got hit by a car! I was going through a clear driveway, when a car darted out. I jamed on the brakes, but low and behold, my darling husband didn't fix the rear breaks like I've asked (my fault, I should have checked first). So I went ass over head onto the ground. No biggie until I looked up and the lady in the car was laughing. I swear she was laughing and eating a twinkie. My knees were bloodied up, my leg got caught under the bike, and my hands were scrapped up. I stood up, she was still laughing, flipped me off and drove off. I called her a couple of choice names, finished my ride and went home. My knees are fine, but I have a huge knot in my calf. I'm going to rest for a bit, I may not be able to do my second run today, if it's still hurting. Any wonder why I'm not a people person????!!!!!
Managed to do 7.5 miles. It felt good, but the last lap, I opted out of doing the half mile hill. So, I landed at 7.5. Not bad. the bruising is really starting to develop. Its not too bad, but I'm going to ice it some more. |
