Went down to the river trail and took that into Bloomington and back. I was feeling pretty good and at about mile 5 I saw Ross Decker out running and for some reason that made me think " I should throw some quicker miles in here." So I proceded to pick up the pace for about 5 miles. With each mile getting faster. Unfortunatly I picked up the pace just a little to much and I could tell I was spent and I still had 10 more miles back home. Tried not to think too much about it but I was getting more and more tired with each mile until at the end I was just barely moving.
I did have a weird experience coming back. I was checking out all the rabbits and lizards running across the trail when I spotted a butterfly overhead. Im watching it as it gets closer and closer until it passes overhead. Then out of nowhere it feels like someone punches me right between the shoulder blades and scratches me. I turn around wondering what the heck just happened and I see this robin flapping around trying to fly back into the trees. Either he was after the butterfly and didnt see me or he thought I was going to steal his lunch and he was showing me who was the boss. Nature loves me. |
