8.3 miles by myself and I struggled. Felt the effects from Saturday for sure... Came home and grabbed Ryan and he rode two miles on his bike as I finished my morning.

Dog Patk to Target and Highway 14, then home through secret street in a Fishers Landing. Allergies are out of control....

2.5 mile into my run, I felt a sharp, searing pain in my left foot. I immediately slowed down and looked at what kind if rock I'd stepped on. No rock...but instead, it was a screw that went directly through my shoe.  I untied and took my shoe off to see that the screw was sticking through the sole 1/2 inch and my sock was bleeding. Good times... Luckily it happened across the street from the local gym in Camas and I hopped over, called Andrea, and got a ride home. Now I'm at urgent care getting a tetanus shot for the first time since 1999.

Nothing.  My foot hurts worse today than yesterday.  It's to be expected, I suppose, but I'm dissapointed nonetheless.  Hopefully tomorrow...

Only made it 1 mile. Foot just doesn't feel ready to run on and I tend to err on the side of caution.

Good long run. No tempo...just a long run on my legs. Finished just over 2:33 and now I'm tired. Foot is better (not 100%, but better). One more long run next week and then Seattle.
