ran slow for a mini "recovery" run. paces were 11, 9:50, 10
tried to run in the pm. It was freakin' gorgeous outside. Sunny, 75, blossoms on everything. I accidently left my watch in the house, and by the time I noticed, I didn't want to have to go back in for it. I decided to just run very easy and get some great sunshine miles in. Whether it was from lack of sleep build up, being worn out, being dehydrated (I really don't see how), or too much Texas Pete on my chili at lunch, I started having some real troubles about a mile into my run. My head felt disconnected, and sort of dizzy. It didn't get any better, so just after mile 2, I thought I'd try walking for a while to see if it would help. It did help, but I just walked home instead of trying to fit in another mile somewhere along the way. My goal had been 4, so I didn't meet my goal. Got home, pulled some weeds & had some gatorade type stuff. Maybe it's something in the air. The flowers on the trees were putting off some strong smells. Those flowering pear trees are soooo beautiful, but holy cow, they smell horrible! Mini me helped me cook dinner & we treated ourselves to dinner on the sofa while we watched New Moon again. (the boys were both doing other things). Nothing productive accomplished, but it was nice to chill. I even got to put her hair up in curlers :-) Good times. Way better than two more miles.
