“she’s like a rainbow
coming colors in the air
oh, everywhere
she comes in colors“
— rolling stones, she’s a rainbow
so i got another nice adjective added to my never-ending list of personality “assets”: imprudent. (this picture also illustrates klutzy — clutter around the leg courtesy of my husband).
the rainbow is a result of my pasty lab tan, sunburn and a bruise acquired by bumping into a parked car. why the line in the middle of the calf? i was wearing the knee brace to stabilize the kneecap and keep the aftermath of the “other klutziness” under control. why i did not apply sunscreen on my legs is beyond me. somehow i sometimes tend to think i’m immune to sunburn below the knees. go figure. it was a nice 17 miles, though. very hot, but with nice water fountain bathing rituals along the way. (nothing like pouring cold water down your back when running on a hot day). i also stopped half-way to stretch, as i found a nice shade in a grassy area. i will repeat this run on thursday, this time with sunscreen. i need to lose my right big toenail, to keep things even.
eeesh…nasty bruise! Location of afore-mentioned bruise looks like it could have been a trailer hitch. Those are hard on the shins too.
BTW, Stones with Alice Cooper in Halifax, NS Sept. 23rd…outdoors! There are good trails alongside the Atlantic Ocean here…
Geesh. Nice rainbow effect. Consider me impressed 😉
rainbows – how pretty! 🙂
By the way – when are we gonna go for a run?
