I saw a dead fox up at the corner, and a rat running from it. I believe he'd been eating. Blech!

10 miles!

That's 16 km for most of you outside of the USA (no, we'll never accept the metric system.)

Can you believe that? Unless I was pressed on some death march that I've completely suppressed, I've never walked anywhere near that far in my whole life.

And you know what? It totally stank! It was awful! The first 5 miles were great, but man my body was done after 6 or so. Everything after that was willpower, and I'll probably be paying for days. But, I thought I could do it and I did. Yay!

Darn Lack of Moleskin!

Should have used it today, too. Limped for the last mile. I need to go take my shoes and socks off and look at my toes, but the thought is grossing me out so I'm stalling for time.

I saw a fox in my neighborhood! I whistled and s/he looked at me, then skulked away. They kind of always look like they're skulking though, so I don't think it had anything to do with me. I was wearing deodorant...

I also saw 3 rabbits, running in a line down the side of the street. At first, all I saw were their shadows, and I immediately determined that it must be some freakishly fast multi-legged alien being that had risen from a sewer culvert. I think I need to consider more edifying material than the last book I read.

Miles today: 5 <---Instead of the 4 I'd planned!
