As last evening went on, it became increasingly apparent, that what I thought was some sort of poison on my shins was, in fact, poison on my shins.
The good news is that while it looks like it hurts or itches, it does not. So, not sure what sort of poison it is (maybe some sort of stinging nettles?), but it’s something. Oh well, my legs already look like a war zone, so a few splotches of red are the least of my worries.
With that, I took my splotchy shins into the woods early Wednesday morning for a slightly shorter 5.34-mile loop.
I once again have no “real” pics because there was heavy rain predicted for the morning, so I left the z50 behind and just took my phone. I should have taken my Canon s95 or Fuji x70 because, oddly, as much as I love taking photos, I feel awkward and stupid taking phone pics and I never really like the results. Of course, it could also be that I buy the cheapest iPhone they make!
Sadly, the rain didn’t come until my last quarter of a mile, but when it did, it poured! So probably a good choice.
As of now, I have 19.46 miles this week, and I feel pretty confident about getting another 30-mile week in.
Later.
