Oops!

Encouraged by my DC runs, I set out on a 10 mile run with C.  I felt great setting out.  We set a medium fast pace going out, and settled in at a sub 9 minute mile.  My heart rate was fine, it all felt smooth, until, on the way down the backside of the Williamsburg bridge, a muscle on the inside of my right thigh cramped hard . . . The same muscle cramped at the end of the last run in DC, but I was able to finish off the run.  This time it hurt more, and I had a lot farther to go to get home.  Grumble, grumble.  I hobbled to our Gatorade stop hydrated, stretched, and tried to head out again. No dice.  Oh well.  Happily, there was a Citibike stand nearby, so I sent C on his way and rode home.  It was frustrating, but I'm not super worried.  The cramp is frustrating, but again, it's in the big part of a large muscle, and will heal.   Oy!!
