Ok...this one was a figurative butt kicker for me and a literal crotch destroyer for me...I must have been tired this morning when I put on the glide...because by mile 7 I knew I was in trouble.  "Crotch on fire" for those Hunger Games fans out there.

 Oreo is a tough dude and put the screws on for a round the dam (Pineview) run that always is a tough run for me because of the long straight aways and the seemingly gradual up and wind in the face.  I was tight and lagging on energy, but we conquered none the less.  This did not give me the psychological boost for the Marathon in two weeks that I was looking for.  Anyway... good times...Oreo thanks for the hosting and the Patience with my whining.

LOL, crotch on fire. Too funny. You will be just fine in your marathon. No worries!

You tough brudda - no worries. You'll pass me around mile 18 as usual. You're like Feyd-Rautha.. just no getting around it!

Oreo is patient with us whiners. I think I complained all the way up and back on our BL adventure. The dam circumnavigation is a tough go! Truly seems uphill the whole way. Well done on toughing it out, especially with the....issues.
