Warm but slippery
It was warm enough to wear shorts for my run this morning, but heavy rain last night mixed with remaining icy/slushy patches made for some slippery sidewalks! I almost fell a couple of times but saved myself, luckily. My legs were pretty tired today and I had a little niggle in yet another place in the knee area but my hamstring felt okay (I'll take what I can get). I did my downtown/gentrification run and tried not to have to stop at too many lights, but I did get caught at a few where it wouldn't have made much sense for me to just cross the other way to avoid the wait. (Plus, sometimes I like a little stretch break here and there.) I was in a bit of a hurry this morning because I had a doctor's appointment, but I got in my run just fine and made it home with plenty of time to enjoy my shower.
I took the car in before my appointment to get the side mirror fixed (I can't remember if I mentioned my incident with the garage and the side mirror) but the mechanic said he did not have time today nor did he have room to park my car. Very annoying since I don't have easy parking at work. Luckily, Matt was coming from the airport later in the morning so I asked him to swing by and pick up the car (he has free parking near his office). That worked out well and he finally got to see my office after all these months.
I lifted at lunch because I have plans to meet a friend after work. The Georgetown sprinters and jumpers were working out so that is always a treat for me while I do my situps and lunges!
