Painful run
I woke up this morning with gout in my left big toe joint. This was my first attack in years. Gout is where the uric acid in your system crystallizes in the coldest joint in your body (big toes joint). The crystals are like little needles in the joint. Very inflamed and painful for a week or so. If you take the medication early, it may head off the worst. Hopefully, I did that. I went out to the park this evening and managed to get in 1.3 miles on the trails. Painful, but nothing to break the streak over.
