Afternoon Run

Lunch Run

First half great. 2nd half hard.  Legs were ok but my feet more blister than foot now.  Too much going through mud and puddles and not emptying what got in the shoe.  Also wore a new pair of socks which was dumb. But a very preventable problem in the future.
Despite those complaints, it was an amazing day.  I got to see the sunrise and sunset. I saw a mountain lion and looked over my shoulder a lot more than I would have a couple months ago. Also followed a skunk on the trail for about a hundred feet and was happy he didn’t spray me.  

I almost gave up at mile 43. I sat down and took off my shoes and debated how much long term damage blisters would do(probably not much I decided). Then a guy was standing around and an Uber pulled up and I was very close to asking for a ride. I’m glad I did not. 
This was my 2nd attempt at this route. I tried last week and got half way but bailed for a number of dumb reasons- mostly my phone dying and crappy headlamp which made me worry about navigating in the dark.
