# Days Since I’ve Been Hit by a Car While Running
11.

So that happened…
A week ago, I was out on an early morning run, and got hit by a car running a stop sign. After a trip to ER and a overnight stay for observation, I’m mostly ok. More details on another day.

The Streak Continues
Yesterday, I woke up completely fragged from the week. Chore mode took over and suddenly it was dinner time. Uh, running? oops. Even though I was pretty wiped out, I still managed to sneak out for a run after the child units were put away for the day. The run went ok, but it felt…

The Streak Continues
Haven’t had much to report. Doing 3.3-ish miles on weekdays and a little further on the weekends. Everything feels pretty good; kinda stiff at the start but things seem to work ok once everything gets up to temperature.

Still At It
The streak continues. Really didn’t feel like running this morning, but it was a little warmer than it has been, so I threw myself out the door. I’m trying to get back to making Saturdays my longer-ish run day. So, today, I went a little further. Feeling a little better with the longer run; when…

Running Update
The big test for streak came today, the weekend. Some how I was able to drag myself out of comfortable bed and added another half a mile. Everything working ok, but callus on left foot is still kinda angry for the first mile or so. Hopefully that beings to fade soon. Hmm, never noticed that…
