I ran from home to Freedom Park and back in the middle of the day for the second day in a row. Yes, it was awful; I couldn't even keep the pace below 8 per mile and I stopped for water a total of six times - three water fountains, twice each, on an out-and-back run. These things do not concern me, however. It's not an easy sport, and hey, had I gotten up on time and made it to the Dowd this would not have been an issue. I'm more concerned right now with what appears to be a recurrence of a pinched nerve in my upper back - an old basketball injury that isn't really serious but always puts me on the shelf for a few days when it shows up. We'll keep an eye on it.
