Free For All

It sounded like a good idea. It started out as a good idea. Now, my thighs and feet are screaming at me!!

Yesterday I logged 6.14 miles. One session.
Hubby and I started out at the house and then did a loop of half of Post.

I felt great! Lots of elevation and it was gorgeous out. About half way through I started to feel a bit tired, mostly because when I walk daily, I don't have to deal with a lot of elevation. Big Bertha (the largest hill on post) was at the start of the walk. At any rate, I was still going. Had water with me and gum. Lots of gum. Took a granola bar as well for a little pick me up.

At one point, it started to rain a little bit, but it wasn't anything for us to worry about. At 5 miles I was just about ready to quit. The good idea no longer seemed good. The free for all was going to kick my butt. But hubby was beside me the whole way and he encouraged me to keep going.

We rounded one of the last corners and the shoppette was in view. Sweet Heaven! I could hear a fountain soda calling my name!!! We stopped briefly and then hit the pavement again - almost home.

Home never looked so good! Shoes off, clothes off and relaxing after that endeavor!

Woke up this morning to my thighs telling me I punished them and my feet saying "nope, not doing it today"! Sorry guys, not letting you off that easy. I made a point to get 1.68 miles today, just to loosen up the muscles.

We are going to do a free for all every month in the group.

Miles to date: 25.51
