Yesterday I walked instead of running, due to soreness. Today I made up for it by doing the 4.5 mile circuit in five minutes better time than my last attempt. My hope is that I can stick with this long enough to get a pace worthy of entering an 8K or 10K race at some point, which probably means under 12 minutes per mile. Right now I’m just under 14.5 minutes, so unless I hurt myself, it’s doable.
Wednesday I saw a beaver in the lake, swimming away with a mouthful of “stuff.” The day before, a couple of deer were grazing in the open field area adjacent to the lake. The bugs have been bad during the past few days, I think I got bit by something on my neck the other day, it left a small discolored area. I hope I don’t have some dreaded jungle disease spread by bug bites.
