I went out to the park early this afternoon. I got 1.8 miles on the trails and tripped on a root and took a hard fall. Did something to my back. I struggled to get back to the trail head and got in my minimum 3.1 miles. I thought after continuing to run, the pain would ease up. It did not. For the rest of the day, I have been taking Ibuprofen, laying on a heating pad, alternating with ice. As I suppose other streakers do, I think about continuing my streak. The minimum distance for the Streak Association is one mile. Today, marked exactly 22 months of running at least 3 miles a day and about 14 months of at least 3.1. I am suppose to run the 3.3-mile Milligan Summer Series Trail Run tomorrow night and this is the third summer that I have run all their races. My plan for now is to go to the track tomorrow morning and see what running a miles feels like. I know that back pain does not disappear quickly.
