2 days after my sole-sucking run, I hit the gym. I was able to run for 12 minutes straight!!! I also did some running intervals to work on speed.
I was much better prepared mentally for the next run clinic. It went ok - except I ended up with knee pain. It was pretty bad that night and has been slowly getting better. Now I only feel a bit of a twinge, sort of like an evil laughter, if I move the wrong way.
And nothing helps you prep for an upcoming colour run like a knee injury. Boo. I've come to terms with the fact that I definitely won't be running the whole thing. I may even need to walk for most of it. And (right now) I'm ok with that.

- um, my collarbone is out of hiding!
- And I have wrist bones!
- A 'random' person I see regularly commented on my weight loss (to which I mumbled incoherently because I was not prepared)
Coming up next week: Colour Dash photos!!
