I had my long run today, I don’t usually run it on Wednesdays, but Jim and I were there and we ran on a primarily flat surface…well…flatter than the hills which are extremely abrupt and steep.  My Garmin is much more effective when it’s clear outside. When it’s cloudy, the accuracy rates dropped to 42% and I just don’t trust what I was getting as readings- I am so headstrong about hitting my numbers that I ran until the Garmin said 14 miles, and that took well over 2 hours…everyone else thinks we hit 17 miles, but I refused to give in (which was somewhat ridiculous, I admit).

My friend Tuba who often runs with us went to the doctor and might have a stress fracture in her hip, so she’s on crutches and incredibly bummed. I’ve been encouraging her to get a bone stimulator immediately to help get that bone strong again.
