Lesson Learned

Yesterday morning I learned a lesson. Don't go running until you've had breakfast. We woke up late and I didnt want to eat and then wait to go run so we just went out the door sans breakfast or even a beverage. About halfway into our course I felt dizzy and nauseous. I had to walk to the rest of the way home. So now I know that I need to eat in the morning before I try to run. Low blood sugar = a strange floating feeling and nauseousness....not good for trying to run.

Rain, Rain, Go Away, Come again some other day....

like when I'm not scheduled to run!!! So since my last blog I've run 5.25 miles. 2 on saturday, 2.25 on Monday (at 9:30am and boy was it HOT), and a measley 1 mile today. It's pretty much been raning since Tuesday afternoon so we've been stuck inside. Tonight there was enough break in the rain for me to get out for a short run. I only did one mile but I ran it faster than I would normally run (I hear you're supposed to do this to increase your speed - which I need). It felt good, the temp was nice because of the rain and it gave me some time to myself which I needed bad. Hopefully the rain will stay away this weekend and we can get out long run (3.14 miles) in. Our next 5k is one week from saturday. I love my husband. He's the greatest. The End.
