Sorry for both of these borderline gross pictures. But I need them as a reminder:

A) I’m in no shape yet to run 9 min miles on a long run, particularly on the first half.

B) Short toe nails.

I tend to block out the ugly truths of running. So, this is a reference for my future self. By the way, today’s run was fantastic despite my mishaps, I’ll show you prettier pictures later.
