Run gone wrong! The plan today called for hills and with the race on Saturday, we chose to take it a little easier and run the hills in my neighborhood - this ended up being a very good thing. I did not feel well yesterday on the way home from southern Texas, but didn't think much about it this morning and headed out to meet Annette. Within a mile, I knew I would need a bathroom along the way and we passed by my street towards the end of the second mile, so we stopped. Started running again and about another 1.5 miles out, I stopped at the POP....not good. Trekked back up the hill and grabbed a drink of water from the water bottles I had stashed heading out this morning and again ended up back at my house - 3 stops in 5 miles for those keeping track. Ridiculous! I ran Annette back to her car and then back home to get just past 7 but what a long, hideous morning. I am attributing this to eating raisin bran for breakfast the last two mornings and my body not adapting. This is what I get for trying to eat healthy. I am hoping my lunch run is better, that maybe I can go three miles with out a break.
