| 4:30am track workout - for the record and spoiler alert - I used the bathroom before leaving to run.
2mi. jog over to track w/ 4 straightaway strides,
8x0.5mi. LT - these were slow and painful today and I had to stop to use the bathroom (with no bathroom in sight) after rep no. 4... :( not pleasant.
2:49, 50, 51, 48, 50, 53, 55, 55, 55 - 2:51 average
I can probably attribute slow and sluggishness to GI problem and a solid effort on Monday morning without adequate rest time...
jog back home.
PM - super slow in the heat (95 degrees) 5.77mi. - 51:36

| At work today - HuHot buffet... I overate. legs and abs at work. Feeling sluggish when I got home. Played with the baby a while and then popped a caffeine GU to pep up. Went out for the 10-12 sheduled for the day expecting krap. The caffeine GU was just what I needed - I'll have to remember that trick for the future. Last 3 miles threw in some hill strides/sprints (7 of them - ranginf from 10 - 20 seconds) on Terrace Lake Dr. Much cooler this evening also. 10 mi. - 1:19:10 -- feeling alot better than before I ran tonight. Long MP run on Saturday morning and its time to really taper!! Can't believe its already here.
Oh yeah, and I signed up for Indy Mon. Full on Nov. 2! - see you guys there :)
