So this is what a body feels like a day after running 18 miles? Ya know, I would have thought that after feeling good yesterday post-“damn run”, that I would be escaping the aches and pains pretty much unscathed.
That’s where my brain deceives me. The thinking part.
First notable pain – the middle toe on my right foot. Just the tip. Ow.
Second and third pain – my neck and shoulders
Ow my toe.
Third pain – middle of my back
Ow my toe!
I realize that this is a gradual onset of achiness, and that I could be in for an interesting next 12 hours.
I think I am starting to get a headache.
Ugh my toe! Am I about to lose a nail or what???

Wow, 18 miles! Hope the recovery isn’t too bad. The second day always seems to be the worst.
