Ran in London today.  It was very warm and I was overdressed, I am just not used to running in beautiful weather.   Ran up past Westminster Abbey and the House of Parliment and then got lost in some residential streets.  I head towards the sun and wound up back down by the river and then I could find my way back to the hotel.  I  was very surprised that my pace was 9:12.  Still slower that what I would like but  I felt like I could never get going or into a rythm.  

We get to spend the rest of the day sight seeing before we have to leave for India.

Happy Running!

Made it to India!  No running today, just unpacking, catching up on some sleep and then at work for 10 hrs.  Running tomorrow.  We went to the mall to get dinner and got a new running outfit from the Addidas store.  It is quite a bit cheaper here. 

Happy Running!

Got up after 4.5 hrs of sleep to run today and found out that the fitness ctr at the hotel (it is brand new) has not opened yet.  UGH!  It is not safe to run outside so I went and got ready for work.  I have now been at work for 12 hrs and have probably 3-4 more.  I am planning on doing stairs tomorrow to get some sort of work out in.  Not really what I had planned.

Happy Running!

Ended up not working out at all the last two days.  We worked about 20 hrs on Wednesday and then went back to sleep during Thursday day and go to work on Thursday night.  I woke up with the worst migraine I have had in  years.  Throwing up and barely being able to move.  It was horrible.  I had brought my medicine with me and took some but it took about 5 hrs to feel back to normal.  At that point everyone I came with and our friends here all said that I should stay back at the hotel.  I have now spent the last 8 hrs laying around watching TV and eating junk.  Not productive at all but I had to stay up all night so that I can get back on the same schedule.  I am feeling much better but tired of doing nothing and I miss running terribly.  

Happy Running!
