Trapped Sneakers
I woke up at 8:30 AM to the Best Man lifting up the corner of the futon I was sleeping on. “Sorry,” he whispered. “My sneakers are trapped under here. I have 25 minutes to go running before the craziness starts.” The kid already sounded a bit on edge to me! This is the same guy that went to the race with me this summer. He headed out for his run. I got up, put on my sneakers, and headed out for 40 minutes of my own.
It was raining pretty solidly. I ran on the Canal. I had a nice reintroduction to the hills from this past summer when I was living a mile from where I am staying right now. I can’t believe how quickly I got out of hill running shape. I was seriously out of breath at the top of the giant hill. I think all my injuries feel fine but I still don’t have a lot of confidence in the fact that I am better. I keep thinking I am not quite healed even though I feel okay. It was kind of nice to run in the rain except for my soggy feet.
In other weird news, I had my orthotics in my purse at the bar last night. Logistically it worked out to where I left my backpack (with clothes, laptop, etc.) in my friend's car, went out, and then I went straight home. But I needed my orthotics for my run this morning before I would be reunited with my backpack. Consequently, they got shoved into my purse which then didn't quite shut. It was cute. Really.

Hey, you could have just worn your orthotics out to the bar. Now that would have been cute. :)
