Comments:
Drove to school after spending about an hour in the hot, sunny Safeway parking lot with Sam and Ryan Mcferran waiting for a locksmith to help them back into their car. Loaded spikes, etc into the rental car trunk and set off to the second intersection and back with the Wolf. Hedged at Mass, knowing I was likely biting off more than could chew, but figured I should take advantage of having company and being in the woods talking about Paris running. The hills up to Cathedral, Mass, and Vann Ness nearly did me in as the wheels came off, my drop in fitness, the heat/humidity, and day 8 of Covid positives caught up with me. Dragged myself in, and relied upon Ethan to distract me. Body was wiped out, but I managed to drive home, guzzle water and Gatorade, and shower. I've also managed 12 PU yesterday and today, even though I lazily skipped the run yesterday. There is still a desire to get things going this week, but an acknowledgement that the next few weeks will be rough.
