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.
