Ever since we had some chicken Jun made a couple (few?) weeks ago, Eric and I have been thinking about chicken. We had a bad experience with some chicken from Smiths a couple of years ago and hadn't bought it since (we're not huge meat eaters...or dinner eaters), but the chicken at Jun's house was just *so* good. So I got some at Costco (Costco=safe) and we've had it a couple of times. Eric made some tonight with a bunch of butter (sometimes I think he takes for granted being skinny), bread crumbs, and that garlic spread stuff (also from Costco) and it was awesome. But I went to the gym about 20 minutes after eating, and at 3 miles I got a crazy side ache. Usually I can head off a side ache by focusing on breathing in every two steps and out every two steps, but that didn't work. Then I remembered that someone had talked about this on the FRB and there was something about imagining that you're trying to blow up a balloon. Or something. But that didn't work either, and at about 3.18 I had to stop. But it went away pretty quickly and the rest of the run was uneventful. Boring story, I know. But that's how it went. |
