Galloway Extra Run 1

Real good run today - beautiful weather a little cool at the start but other wise beautiful - there were about 60 total runners today with 7 in our Tapers 13 minutes pace group - this is one of our hiller routes and I found it a bit challenging after racing on Thursday but I did pretty well - It was really nice to run with my Galloway friends again - we had a nice gathering after the run also - I really enjoy these gatherings - no problems no pain -

Saturday Run on part on the marathon route

Real good run - Bert. Meri and I drove you to the Wrights Brother's Memorial and parked there and ran North on the Full Marathon route - Meri and I ran 10 Bert opted for 7 - it was a bit coolant the start but it winded up warming up nicely and was a beautiful run - the route was very nice and interesting for me not having seen it before - I was also really nice to run with Meri again - I was worried I was making her run slow but she said we were fine and it was a bit faster than we might normally be running on a Galloway run- I got tired at the end but other wise I did well - no problems no pain -

Run from the beach house

Good run but not one of my best - I really wanted to run at the same pace I ran the half and I was able to for a while but then I slowed down even though I was trying to move faster - I also had planned to ran the whole time but at 3.5 miles I needed to start run walk which was OK but not what I had planned - I am assuming I was just not recovered well yet - an interesting thing I got a small bluster sort of in the middle of my right foot after the 8K race - I have never gotten a bluster in this are before - after the Half it was a little worse even though I lanced and covered it before the half - I decided to check my shoe before this run just to see if there was some problem with it - I found something sticking up inside the shoe - it turned out to be an almost two inch wedged shape rock that I had stepped on and driven through the sole of my shoe - i was amazed to find this and find it hard to believe I ran the part of the 8K and the whole Half with the rock in my shoe and sticking into my foot - my foot is healing well I just hope shoe is not badly damaged -
