I slept good last night but then I woke with a new a exciting pain in my left knee. I think it might be arthritis. All this rainy weather is probably the reason. The weather was miserable today... rain snow wind, you name it, but there was a break in all the weather right when work ended, so it was just a few drizzles. I had dropped my gloves yesterday in the mud and didn't get them washed but luckily I had an extra pair of socks in my bag LOL. I looked like a dork but there was not any other runners on the trail so it didn't matter. My right hip and shin were bugging quite a bit, I'm not ready to say it's the new shoes, I think I just need to ice and stretch better.

I was surprised that my laps were not over 10:00, I think I really just wanted to be done.

Hopefully the socks were clean.

Burt... socks were clean, in fact they were new and not even worn yet. Not to say that I wouldn't put on old or dirty socks in I needed ;)

I hope your weather clears up. It's reached us now. I like the story of the socks.
