Jogging Haiku 52: Hisashiburi

Hisashiburi means "long time no see" in Japanese, and it certainly the case with this blog. In the end I did not jog every day in February, and I did skip a number of days at the end when my son was admitted at the hospital for dehydration caused by the rota virus. He got over it, but is struggling with another bug these days.

On the jogging front, after being incapable of finishing a 20k+ run a couple of weeks ago I decided not join a mountain race that's coming up next month. I think the cookies I ate during the run are what prevented me from finishing, and it was quite demoralizing.

On the other hand, I had been wearing my Five Fingers almost daily recently and I've gotten pretty used to them now. My calves and Achilles tendons don't hurt anymore. Last night I jogged about 6km in them at my regular speed, and this morning, although my feet were a little tight, I felt no pain whatsoever. Yeah! I composed a hiaku last night, here it is:

Out barefoot again
Jogging at a normal pace,
Yeah! These are comfy.
