Tin Man Run

Some days the body does not cooperate. I went out to Umstead yesterday for a 6 mile run on trails. I knew my back was a little tweaky from something but,like usual I ignored my body. I will make it do what I want damnit! Company Mill trail is a little rocky to start out and when the rocks abate my body usually loosens up and flows a little. This time it felt like I was stiff and tight. Okay, stop and stretch, that will do it. Nope. Sprint to every other trail marker should do it. Nope. Walk a little. Nope. Okay, just run to the bridge for a 2 mile run, that will be acceptable. Nope, ain't gonna happen. Tuck my tail between my legs and hobble stiffly back to the car. Yeah, That is what my body wanted. Oh, to see the car again :) It was time for some beer and trashy TV. Just what my body ordered!
