half a loaf is better than none

It was a crazy week and a half of torrential rain. I allowed it to set me back a bit. I only ran 2.5 miles for 3 days straight. Not up to my usual standards but I suppose half a loaf is better than none. The problem is this - wet clothes are actually very heavy. Water is very heavy. Watery shoes are very heavy.

You can get only so drenched before it shouldn't matter anymore. Although I must admit, stepping knee deep into a puddle of water trumps the worst kind of drenching. Of course frustration is something that never dampens especially when each drop of rain causes your iTouch to turn on and off, on and off, on and off....

I'm whining again. In short, doing 5 miles now is a bit of a stretch but at least 4 miles is a start back. I need to get back to the Sea Girt Light House each and every day. and then across the town border into Spring Lake for 10k....that's the future....we'll see where we go from there....as it is....baby steps....
