Recovered from the humidity and am back to my 10K distance.
A new tale from the track: Halfway thu the 14th lap, trotting along looking down at my feet and surprise, a football blocking sled in lane 1 [ Passed it 14 times in the last 20 minutes]. Hard contact with said sled. Slow horizontal roll to the right, forearm skidding along rubberized tarmac, classic road rash. Disoriented and looking for the truck that hit me. Finally realized what had happened. No serious damage just a brush burn, tho 2 walkers saw the whole thing, ego deflated. Got up and finished the run. Yes, I can run with my tail between my legs and if I remain this damage proof I may make that Marathon at 80 yet, 56 on Sunday race fans.
