Soreness continues, so does the rain

Am I living in Austin? or Seattle? Last time I checked it was Austin, but we're getting records rains and I've been running or swimming in the rain for the last 2 weeks or so. I should be happy it's not 100 degrees outside, but I'm kinda sick of it. Town Lake is really swollen and much of the trail is covered in water. This morning I was limited to about a 2-mile stretch of trail. So I ran back and forth until it was time to go home. The back and forth wasn't enough to distract me from the soreness in my joints and muscles from the knee striking, elbow throwing and leaping I did the night before. Nor was it enough to keep my mind on the shin splint that refuses to go away. Grrr... I need faster, more inspiring, motivational music to push me. Maybe that will help.
