We ran the Hinson Lake 24 Hour Run this weekend although fell short of our 24 hour goal. After about 13 hours of running and socializing we decided it was time to go home and get some sleep. Frank ran 52 miles and I ran 45! I was a little disappointed by not reaching my 50 mile goal but the bugs started biting and my feet started complaining so I decided to go home. The good thing is is that I did not get injured and my recovery time will be minimal which is a very good thing. My legs feel great and my biggest issue today has been the mosquito bites. My wrist is swollen and I just itch everywhere. My legs are already a mess from other bites and now it looks like I'll have a few more to add to the collection.
I'm taking the day off work tomorrow so we're going to head to Costco in Greensboro for supplies. Shouldn't need too much but it's always fun to go to civilization every now and then.
Tomorrow I really need to get serious about my training and my weight loss. My intentions are good but somehow I manage to lose site of my goals and let my guard down. Hopefully I'll be able to stay focused this time. Losing 20 pounds would really help my running. I'd be smoking fast! Okay, I'd be a little faster!
