Rain

My left shin hurts last night while at rest. That got me real worried and I slept wondering whether I should run this mrn.

Alarm rang at 5am and after some hesitation and fighting the sleepiness, I headed out. Told myself will do a short one if I don't feel good.

I thought I felt a few droplets when I was near Queenstown but it wasn't until when I passed River Valley that it was heavy enough for me to stop at the traffic lights to stop my ipod. The rain got heavier when I got to SG River but surprisingly my resolve to run got stronger with the cool weather and the rain landing softly on my skin. It actually felt quite therapeutic.

And so I did the same distance as last week. Thought I was going faster (at least for the first hour) but total time taken was slower by 3 mins. Guessed I slowed down considerably because of the road conditions. Sure didn't want to slip & fall.

1hrs 25mins.

No pain during the run. But the shoulders felt very stiff. Need a massage soonnnn
