Note to self: Bring a jacket next time.

Distance: 6.12 km

Time: 41:02

Is it just me or are sports socks a complete pain in the ass? I have size 10 feet, so I usually buy the larger ladies size of sport socks (9-11) but usually find that the heel cap sits somewhere in the region of the back of my ankle for some reason. So then I buy some of the smaller ladies socks, and within a wash or two they don’t even come up to my ankle at all. I’m not sure what to do about it. I’m thinking maybe I should try wearing crew socks rather than the anklet style ones, because I’m prone to blisters and rubbing on the back of my ankle so I need to have some coverage there, but surely I’m not the only one having such issues with socks. I wore some of the smaller ones to work today (or maybe they’ve just shrunk) and my toes feel like I’ve been repeatedly and enthusiastically kicking a brick wall just for fun.

The run home from work was okay. I was a little tired, but I think I still made fairly good time. Was a little cold and windy, but it didn’t do me any harm. The running home seems to be helping with the work stress as well, although it’s not a cure. I tried to get back to my regular eating patterns today, and have been feeling absolutely starving as a result, but I’m sure I’ll find a balance soon.
