Bandit

Today I was a bandit. I ran part of the WildRide! WildRun! 5k this morning. I wasn't a true bandit (running the race without registering), just happened to come upon it while running my normal weekend run. I was there before any of the runners, but was there for sound checks with several of the bands. I was tempted to stop at the water station (conveniently located at the top of the hill that I run sprints on), but opted to drink out of my camel instead.

I've encountered races on my normal route, but not usually in the nature preserve. 

A little motivation!

I also had another trip and almost fall today. I caught my left foot on some uneven pavement and almost went down. I was able to right myself before I hit the ground, but not without hurting my hip and foot in the process. This marks trip #4 in the year and a half I've been running. It seems like a lot. Hopefully I'll feel better in the morning.
