A.M. Loop @ 3.5. Went out for a easy run (I thought). I had planned on doing 7 miles (max) but ended up going up this sandy trail that was hard to run on and cutting into my big loop trail. So I did 8.5 out in the 90-degree heat. The heat didn't really bother me. I just ate a really bad lunch and it was wreaking havoc in my stomach. I had the dry heaves around the 3-mile mark. I wish I could have just puked and got it out of there. After the 4.5-mile mark I started feeling a little better. My muscles, joints, and the rest of my body feel great. I have developed a blister on the little tow of my right foot. It hurts. I've got to dry it up so it won't be a factor in the half marathon this weekend. |
