Oh the heat!! Another bad run on a heat filled morning, but the heat is not the only thing to blame. I only had 3.5 hours of sleep last night and was going to bail but woke up and couldn't go back to sleep. That combined with poor eating yesterday and the heat made for a bad combination. I could never get into a rhythm and pushed through 3+ miles and then took two short walking breaks through mile 4. At that point when I would start to run, nausea and stomach cramping set in and so I only ran 1/2 a mile in what was 2 miles home. Crappy, crappy and no end to the heat or stress in sight. |
