3.1 miles - pretty good pace

The sun came out and warmed my old cold bones on this jaunt.

6 miles - after work - gym treadmill

This morning before work, I realized that we didn't have much in the house for food.  As my eyes scanned the vast emptiness before me, I spied two lonley hotdogs in the back of the fridge.  I then found some hamburger buns since for some reason there are only eight hotdog buns in a bag, yet ten dogs to a pack?  I would be having hotdog sandwiches for lunch!  I slammed those puppies down after my pre-lunch 5k and went on with my work day.  At about 2:30 I needed a coffee pick me up.  I went with the Big Easy Bold blend to make it to my 4'oclock departure time.  The end of my work day arrived and I walked across the street to the gym.  I was feeling caffeinated and jazzy!  The idea was to get in 7-8 miles and push the total for the day to 10 or 11 miles..... respectable I thought.  Once on the treadmill, I started off slow and stayed slow for the first 3 miles.  I began to feel lower abdominal pain at this time and went over a mental checklist of what it could be.  The pain and cramping got worse and worse, but I would be damned if I wasn't getting in those miles.  I realized at 5.5 miles that I was only going to make it to 6 miles, as I was in full clench mode running at a 7:30 pace.  I had visions of marathoners releasing themselves mid-run and thought better of wrecking the treadmill, and the workout of the woman directly behind me on the eliptical :)

I curse you Hotdog sandwiches and Bold coffee!

I have made it a rule not to eat any food that has been hiding in the back of the fridge for "who knows how long?". I might suggest you make the same rule. :)
