This morning I was super proud of myself for getting my shit together and starting my lumber at 6:52 AM.
But, as per my usual, that pride was fleeting, for at 6:54 as I walked down the main park path to the trails, I double-checked my setting on the z50, and soon found out that while I did put a newly charged battery in before I left the house, I did NOT put an SD card in. Shit.
So, not wanting to carry 2 pounds of useless camera around on my pack for the lumber, I did a U-turn back to Escape II, ditched the camera, and then was on my way… again.
Without a real camera, just my piece of shit phone, I felt naked, and the hike seemed pointless. I never thought that I relied on my camera that much to make the miles pass by, but it turns out I really do!
I was hoping for another 6 to 7 miles today but the combination of no camera and feeling some soreness in my right calf, brought about from doing too much yesterday after my hike, had me deciding that 5.65 miles would have to be enough.
If I’m still set on hitting 30 miles again this week, I can do a short loop tomorrow morning. Right now, I have 26.21 miles in my feetz, so if my calf is feeling OK and I do decide to go out tomorrow, all I need is 3.79 miles to hit my goal.
The fungus pic above was taken earlier in the week. No pics today because, as mentioned, I’m a moron.
Later.
