Mileage for today: 31 Starting point is the Ronald McDonald House of Savannah located at 4710 Waters Ave. Stopping point is the Lighthouse Christian Academy on Martin Road in Midway. Today's run is dedicated to the Ronald McDonald House of Savannah. Sulfamethoxazole on the rocks. Seems a few days ago I had this zit like pus pocket on my leg. I popped it and covered it with an antibiotic ointment and a band-aid. Even though I kept it nice a clean and bandaged with ointment, I still developed cellulitis. Last night the area was getting pretty infected and my lower leg was very swollen (gotta love that pitting edema - again). Being 8PM on a Sunday the only course of action was a trip to the ER. The good news is it didn't need lanced and drained. Just some antibiotics (sulfamethoxazole) and warm compresses. Plus I was told that running on it wouldn't not make the situation worse. So, onward Patsy! Some rather exciting news from the unofficial official Four Million Steps physician, Dr. C. The good doctor sent me a note saying armadillos are the only other mammal, beside man, that can be infected with leprosy! And that 1in 6 armadillos harbor leprosy. Sweet. Most of the day was spent on my old friend Route 17. Today she yielded the two Georgia licenses plate (15 & 16 - Sorry marylandexc, you lose) and my 9th sighting of woman's skivvies. I also ran past the Georgia State Department of Corrections Woman's Work Program. They were doing what would be called highway beautification, better known as probation. I didn't think much of it, I've gone past a few such groups on this run, that is until a few miles down the road I passed them again. Twice in one day? Know what that means don't you? Yup, we're now dating. Yes sir, me and the Georgia Department of Corrections Woman's Work Program. Granted not the whole department, just those on Route 17. I'm not a slut. |
