Lost

Went on a run with Andy to boost my confidence for the 10k this weekend. The plan was to run 3-4 miles, then head back to work and eat dinner, then onto karate. What actually happened was we missed one of the turns and ended up running in a completely different area (strike 1). My knee started acting up around mile 3.5 (strike 2) and rather than hurt it this close to the race, i slowed to a walk while Andy kept going.

Then I thought I got turned around (turns out i did (strike 3)) so I turned back around, and made another wrong turn (strike 4). Andy ran to the car, then came back to meet me...only I was no longer there because I was off lost. I managed to turn about a tenth of a mile into 2 miles on my little 'detour'. By this time it was too late to go back to work or to karate (strike 5).

My theory is that I sub-consciously conned Andy into getting some extra running in while he ran up and down the path trying to find me.
