That smarts!

Today was clamming day and holy sweet goodness, am I sore. I can't believe it. Although I should believe it because it was hard work. We went over to Coronado and had to get way in the water. Like up to my thighs into the water. My armpits were in the water sometimes! If I don't get sick from this outing, science better study me! You know how cold our ocean is. We were in the water for 2 hours today! There were five of us and we had a limit of 10 clams/person. We ended up with 39. Now, I'm not a quitter. But there came a time when I was just done. I caught 8 though! Not going to lie, I was darn proud of myself! Anyway, that counts as 50 miles in my book! OK, maybe 30...... I did run this morning. Despite the cold! I did 6.45 miles. Was considering 7 but I was ready to be finished by the time I got back to my neck of the woods. Now, will I be able to run tomorrow? Who knows!

I'm sorry but that doesn't sound like any fun to me at all! Of course, I wouldn't eat a clam if I was starving to death so that colors my opinion! Sounds like you did a good job though!

No run here this morning. They fixed an egg bake in their crock pot overnight and Carter made blueberry muffins so I just decided to exercise my elbow instead.

I took today off, too. I was sore!

I did do a good job - conciseness is that I found the most. With no tools - only my feet! Clam Whisperer!

How were the muffins?

The muffins were great! It was from a little mix, of course, but he did it all himself and they were excellent.
