I have not been able to run now for five days as my ankle is a real pain in the ass (Er, ankle?)
I’m beyond frustrated.
Not running means I have slept in every day this week until seven thirty.
Am I refreshed?
No! I feel exhausted every day!
I am an exercise addict now and I just feel like a lump of dough as I sit around waiting for my ankle to stop hurting. The good news is I have run every errand this week and cleaned everything I could possibly clean, including my cats, car and house.
The extra free time I have has been nice, but I can’t wait to hit the trails again.
Maybe its good I have been stuck at home.
The trail I run the most Exploration Trail feels “safe” to me.
This trail is very popular and clear of pine needles and debris.
I don’t know why but I always feel like I will not run into rattle snakes here. ( Or maybe I will be more likely to notice them as the trail is clear of debris?)
Yesterday my coworker went hiking here and saw a giant rattlesnake killing and eating a chipmunk on this, my favorite trail.
That chipmunk could have been my ankle.
