AM: 6.15 feel pretty good. Bouncing back from workouts better now it seems. But once again trudged most of it due to calorie deficit.  Only fuel for workouts lol.  But really the overnight calorie deficit is the most important and if I wake up and eat before I run I would get sick and still not have the calories to run on since it takes too long to get into the system. 157.5 before run, 155.0 after.

PM: 6.15 easy.  Started out stiff but loosened up as the run progressed.

also, this will be the 3rd or 4th run that i have been using body glide! it was MVP yesterday lol.. i'm probably going to use it on every run now lol...

Sweet about again to carthage. As for body glide, it works when you need it. I say when you start to chaffe you use it for a few days and wash your running cloths. That is sometimes the culprit. And using the body glide for a few days will let your skin heal. But i know for experience using stuff everyday will just make your skin sensitive because it gets no beating. I was sort of addicted to nipple bandaids for a long time lol.

I use bodyglide every time i run more than 5 miles. why leave home without it? running is bad enough sometimes to worry about chaffing.
