I realized that my knees didn’t start hurting until mile 4 yesterday, 2 miles later than usual. Almost as if the first two barefooted miles didn’t count! Hm….

Even so, I am a complete wreck today. I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised. Despite the usual knee and back ailments, I have no less than 6 small blisters all of my little toes. And as I was limping to the train, a whole new pain cropped up: A stabbing pain in my back. Hooray! Is this the “Sense of Accomplishment” I hear so much about?
