After a rough Saturday night when sleep was a challenge with sore legs, and a rough Sunday trying to walk and even rougher Monday walking, finally today my legs are feeling not horrible. I'm sore from my feet to the top of my quads, and I'm even sore on my shoulders from the hydration pack straps. My feet have cuts on the top of them from the duct tape, but they're just flesh wounds and will heal nicely. The duct tape was absolutely worth it. 

Hoping I feel like running in a week or so.

I'll count 1 mile although I didn't run that entire way. I dropped my son off at conditioning class then went to the Y and headed outdoors. I did a 1 1/2-2 mile loop with no watch because I was just walking then I'd run a bit.

One thing I keep failing to mention is my left knee bugged me on the race and it still is a bit. I don't think it's my actual knee, just something on the outside of it. I'm guessing IT band or something like that. I haven't done any cross training recently so once I add that into the mix after recovering I expect to feel better. I felt it after a couple long runs and it went away. On the race I noticed it but it seemed to happen more when I was sloppy with my footwork. When I focused I didn't feel it. We'll see.

By the end of next week I should be running a few miles or more.
