When I set out on my Wednesday run...all I was hoping for was better than yesterday. And it was. My foot did start to numb up toward the end...but I think this will pass in the next week or so. So in all, I felt a LOT better.
When I took off, I went in a different direction on the new greenway that had just opened up across the street from the college where I work..shout out to Wake Tech! The way I went had been closed off due to construction. So I was pretty pumped to try something new. I always like a new adventure when I run. It makes the distances not seem as far when I am looking at new things. The route I've been traveling is the Neuse River Green way. Which is also a part of the Capital Area Greenway. And pretty soon it will be linked to the Mountains to Sea Trail which will cover the length of North Carolina. How cool is that! Maybe one day I will conquer that...but for now...I will stick to my current goal of the Rock 'n' Roll Raleigh Marathon.
While on my run there were some very cool additions to the trail that really showed the pride in creating this piece of outdoors for us North Carolinians.
Simple things like a piece of art...
And this pedestrian bridge that goes over the Neuse. If you're traveling up 401N just past 540 and Wake Tech's North Campus...you'll see it on the West side. It's nicely done.
In all...it was a good run. I felt good and my progess to getting back in shape is, well, shaping up nicely.
