Yesterday I ran my first 10k since April 2003, a Rotary-sponsored event coinciding with Issaquah, WA’s “Salmon Days” festival. It was a terrific experience! I have posted results, pictures, and comments on my website at http://www.jodidodds.com/10k/salmondays.htm . This morning I am experiencing mild to moderate tibialis anterior soreness bilaterally, likely attributable to running six miles on pavement. I had absolutely no soreness during the race, which is wonderful!
Evan and I enjoyed the Salmon Days festival that followed the race. Huge salmon were trying everything to get upstream to the Issaquah Hatchery, where they were hatched and where they “wanted” to go to spawn. Many were so large they were forced to flop (for lack of a better word) upstream in shallower portions of the creek bed.
