ORN: This morning, I ran five easy miles along a hilly course by my neighborhood. I did it in 50'43", which was a little slower than I wanted to go, but I've had this pain in my left heel since about mile 16 in the marathon last week. I've massaged and medicated and iced. I took it easy this week partly to give it a rest, but it's not wanting to go away. Hope it passes soon.
Someone once wrote that The Kentucky Derby is decadent and depraved, and while that might be an exaggeration, yesterday's race was a pretty mess. The track was a swamp, and some no-name horse came from nowhere to put the pedigreed equine aristocracy in its place. I loved it, except for the minor detail that I bet on Frisian Fire, the horse that came in next to last. Such is my luck with horse racing.
Two weeks until my next race. I plan on getting some quality workouts in between now and then and hopefully score a decent PR in the 5K.
