Repulsive Beasts

Today I donned real shoes for the first time since the marathon. I even attempted a run. Unfortunately, my right knee pain returned just a few blocks after beginning, so no runner's high for me. The poor, overworked joint apparently needs a little more time to recover. Waiting to get back into a running regimen will certainly be a test of my patience, so I'll have to explore other activities to fill the void.

This afternoon I did just that. In honor of my 26.2 mile accomplishment, two of my greatest running cheerleaders so generously gifted me with money for a pedicure. However, I wouldn't wish these repulsive beasts into the hands of my worst enemy.







Ladies, I truly am grateful for your thoughtfulness, so I hope you won't be offended that I resorted to Plan B...a massage.
