a new low

My running has been suffering of late. I've been having some knee and ankle problems so on averaging I've been keeping my distance down- usually 2.5-3.5 miles with a peak here and there of 4.5-6 miles. Last Saturday my run was from my apartment to my friend's car that I wanted to use: a grand total of .96 miles. Today my running consisted of sprinting past this gargantuan puddle in the road. Since it had stopped raining and the rest of the rest of the road was dryish, evey car that went by- no matter if it was a semi or a vw rabbit, no matter how slow they seemed to be going- every car flung a sheet of water across the entire sidewalk. It was a busy street so there wasn't much chance to get by without risking your dry well-being. So when there was a little break in the cars, this girl and I sprinted past before the next cars got there. And that was my running today.
