Day 247.
This morning I had a 10 mile run, which I did at the park, with the jogger. Again, I took some fuel with me, which I didn't end up using. I felt mostly good for the whole run, but at around mile 8 the back of my right thigh started to cramp really bad. I considered, for a moment, stopping to stretch it out, but I was afraid if I stopped at that point, I would just want to walk the last couple of miles. So I pushed through, and the cramp came and went. When I hit miles 9.7, I had reached the park entrance, and normally I would have just kept running towards home, until hitting the 10 mile mark, then walked the rest of the way as a cool down. But at that point, I really felt the need to stretch out and relax that leg muscle, so I slowed to a walk and stretched it out. By the time I got back home, I felt better, the cramp had subsided. I did 25 minutes of Pilates to stretch and cool down some more.
