Sun Nov 24: PM. On the track, did a 2 mile, then 2x1 mile (11:20, 5:38, 5:38) + striders at Griese Park. It was cloudy and in the upper 30s.
Mon Nov 25: AM. Ran for about 10 mins before nearly getting killed by a car that blew through a red light. It was dark and foggy and I’m pretty sure the car didn’t even have its lights on. All I remember is feeling the back of my head slam into the pavement then seeing stars. I think I ran into the side of the car. At least it wasn’t the other way around or I’d be a pancake. Got a nasty case of road rash, a possible patellar fracture and probably a concussion. Did a slow, painful limp home and treated the wounds. Just a little bit worse for the wear.
