I ran with King on Saturday morning. Delightful. What a great way to spend time together! This was my second C25K run. It was not as easy as the first run, which surprised me. My muscles are just weird. It must be the Periodic Paralysis, but I start getting sore about 2 hours after I strenuously use my muscles. Within 24 hours of my muscle exertion, I am almost not sore anymore. I ran on Saturday morning around 8:45. By 11:00 a.m. I was really sore. By Saturday night, I could hardly walk/use my muscles. By Sunday morning, I was a little sore, but walking just fine. Totally odd.
I rested on Sunday. Today is Monday and I worked in the pasture at the barn. The drought is just debilitating. One thing that was alive - cactus! So, I spent an hour or so digging up prickly pear. It was a good way to use my upper body muscles and let my lower body muscles rest.
With the drought, we have many animals coming up in the barn area for water. We do not currently have any barn cats, so the rat population has exploded. With an abudance of rats and a lack of water, you have snakes in close proximity. Hopefully, a local pet adoption agency will come through for us this weekend and bring some feral cats for the barn. The kitties will really like all the rats that we have available. With less rats, we hope to have less snakes. And with less snakes, we will have a happier Queen.
