I&#8217;ve worn too many cotton shirts that just shred me. I have a lot of sports shirts that are not cotton and dry rather quickly. So I have the top half covered, but I continue to run in my heavy all-cotton shorts that I bought at Costco many years ago. They rub me the wrong way. I don&#8217;t like that. I finally broke down and ordered some real (non-cotton) running shorts. They should be here sometime on Wednesday, so I probably won&#8217;t be able to use them till Thursday. Hopefully today was my last run in the old busted joints.<\/p>\n<p>I had a rough time getting going today. I couldn&#8217;t find my rhythm for anything. I have a lot on my mind right now (job offers and possibly moving away from San Diego) and I really need a good run to help work through some of it. I wound up walking up most of the first hill, but found my footing after that. I ran pretty well almost all the way to the turn-around at the 5k mark. Like so many other times, I let myself walking a lot after that, but I did get back in step and jogged almost the whole way up the big hill on Del Mar Heights Road. I only broke down into a walk for a few seconds, then got right back to jogging. I brought it home strong and wound up getting my 2nd best 10k. Imagine what would have happened if I hadn&#8217;t walked that whole first mile.<\/p>\n<p><iframe height='405' width='590' frameborder='0' allowtransparency='true' scrolling='no' src='https:\/\/app.strava.com\/activities\/72454263\/embed\/11bc41d735d7d2707f657bd385df92045f23769c'><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have learned the hard way which shirts I can wear running.
