7am start, 30 degrees, the wind made me make wardrobe changes anytime I turned. Gloves on, gloves off, repeat. Jacket on, Jacket off, repeat. Annoying!
Today I pretended to be a trail runner and brought real food with me. The gu and the shocblocs don't seem to do much for me. But I brought a couple squares that I had leftover from last weekend. I brought a banana and ate it after about an hour of running. I brought almonds and had some of those about 90 minutes after running and I think again after 2 hours. I brought watered down powerade and a water bottle.
I ate 2 eggs at 6 am.
I'm tired but I have had worse runs. And I didn't feel ridiculously hungry. Which usually makes me want to stop running. I did make a few stops to stretch eat, stretch and eat.
I ran through Lake in the Hills and lots of other hilly areas. I planned on doing two loops of 7. But my friends that was going to meet up with me after the second group had her gma die last night so I just wandered my neighborhood. I seriously ran out of streets to run on. I shall have to plan better next time.
