oops, socks.

great run again today.  except for my socks. 3.2 miles.  if not for the socks i think i could have gone at least another mile.

it was almost 80 degrees and fairly humid.  generally not my best running weather, but maybe i'm turning a corner.  or at least it feels that way. i mean i was out of breath, sweaty, and yet i still felt good.

i'm not sure what it means to be a runner.  or to be old.  i can tell you, however that i love running. or i do when it feels like i'm turning the corner.  when my legs feel fresh, and it seems like i could just keep going. i'm not running fast. and not consistently, i'm breaking for walking.  but it's ok.  or good, really.  although i think i'm allergic to tree pollem.

i sometimes forget that i need to wear higher socks when wearing running shoes than i usually do. so around mile 2 i started feeling blisters develop on my ankles. by mile 3 they were on fire. so i stopped at 3.2.

i'll keep going tomorrow!
