License plate? Anyone get that?

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???

My anxiety over the next few weeks of long training runs has temporarily subsided thanks to this.

The Oatmeal – I ran my First 50 Mile Ultra Marathon

I wonder if that tree moss grows here?  Oh never mind, I’ll take 7-11 bathroom single-ply scratchy paper, thank-you-very-much!
