shattered
I woke up Saturday with an aching knee. It's a familiar ache from over work--muscle fatigue. I must have been sicker than I thought.
Add to that the fact that it was a late wake up--9:30--unheard of in my house. The alarm went off, then ran for 2 hours, then timed out. My lovely wife wasn't even stirred by its ranting.
I wobbled around in the late morning and early afternoon on legs that felt more like rubber than bone. Also a familiar feeling.
I feel broken.
But I will pick up, go out, and run tonight. I will plod through. Not on my own strength.... certainly not because I want to... absolutely not because it feels good.

6 miles tonight. All night, if I have to.

It's a French movie. The title in English is "A very long engagement", pretty good movie. If you feel like watching it. ;)
Don't hurt yourself. Injuries suck recovering from ... I let myself put a few pounds on that is really beginning to affect my running some.
