My legs are going to hate me tomorrow.



Such nice scenery if you
discount all the yellow on
the ground.



They don't look so bad
here but they are not fun.
In fact, they may be evil.



My nose kinda already does (thank you pollen).  We went out to Riverfront Park to do a little endurance training for the MudRun.  Which is now a little longer and has a new mystery obstacle.  Thank you The State Newspaper for making my morning.  It was quite warm tonight.  There was a high today of 87 and it was still about 85 tonight when the LLS TNT group met (if you want to know more about LLS TNT please see the widget/box on the upper right side of this page).  We set out to do 3 miles tonight and then do ten to fifteen sets of stairs.  And as Cliff, our coach, reminded us that is sets, not up and down five times to equal ten.  So even though it was quite warm there was a great breeze.  Then we come back to the stairs.  I have not ever paid any attention to them before other than being all, 'oh look, there are stairs here.  That's kind of an odd place for them.'  Then I start down them and about bust my butt.  These were freaking stadium stairs.  They are like a foot high and like a foot and a half long.  So, long story short, they sucked.  I couldn't get a good rhythm going and just split the difference and did 13 sets.  I don't know what we are doing Thursday night but on Saturday we are doing a wet shoe trail run.  Which means it is time to decide which of the old shoes will be used during the race.  I have a feeling that I am going to have some really unhappy body parts come Sunday.
