This was a run I was glad I talked myself into.  I have had a crabby two days (and was a little under the weather), and thought about skipping this run.  And this needed to be a treadmill run, too, so that only contributed to my thoughts about skipping it.  However, I was happy to squeeze in some activity.  It really does help me de-crab.

Another treadmill run. Today was a much better day at work, and I am hoping that I will be able to get back in a running groove. We'll see.

3 happy Halloween treadmill miles after a rainy trick or treat session. Charlotte did not like any people wearing masks, and yelled "guy" at them while simultaneously trying to merge her body into mine.

Every time lately that I have gone running in the dark, I have scared the crap out of at least one person. Today it was four kids standing in a group looking at someone's phone. Probably junior high age. One of them looked up and saw me, then started running in the opposite direction. The rest also took off. Then they realized I was just a jogger and laughed at each other.

Today was xc sectionals. I went over to Decatur to watch. After the girls race, I ran 3 miles before the boys started. Then after the boys' race, I went out in the neighborhood around the course and ran 4 more. It was chilly.

Both teams had a tough time because of injury. No girls made it to state. The boys team won state last year, but their #2 runner is out and #4 has been struggling late in the season. They did not make it as a team. They had a runner take second and eleventh. The 11th place runner did not make it. Big bummer.
