This morning I had 3 tacos at about 11:30 and drank a lot of water. I felt a little bloated when I started running at about 1:20ish. I ran roughly 6 miles mostly on muddy trails and the canal path in Canastota. I had to stop several times on the way to evade getting soaked by mud puddles and algae. As I progressed, I became wetter and wetter so eventually I bit the bullet and ran through all of the mud puddles, thoroughly getting soaked in the process. That aside, I had to stop again for roughly 2 minutes to shoo away 3 angry geese defending their young. I managed to scare 1 off before the other 2 charged at me, I then decided to stampede them like an angry rhino does to his attackers. They then called it quits and I resumed my run undaunted, feeling like a champion. In the spirit of champions, I felt like cooling down Ali style with 200 skips on the jump-rope.
