A late night run after we got home from my daughters softball game.I left the house at 11:10 pm and ran a out and back at a 7:20 pace. Has anyone ever noticed that hills are much easier at night?

Today I ran the Jesse Owens 10k in Moulton Al. My goal for this race was 50 minutes. I woke up this morning with a stomach problem and had to visit the john on two occasions before leaving the house.I didnt eat anything for the fear of having to make a pit stop during the race.After the race started I felt good for the first 3 miles and was on pace.Between miles 3 and 4 I started having trouble again.I had to slow down and try to work through it.I stopped at the water station and thought that a drink of water would help.After I started back running my legs felt weak. My breathing was good the whole race but my legs were like noodles.I think that it was a combination of no food and a nervous stomach.I started feeling a little better around the last mile and tried to finish strong.I still almost ran a high 50 but was a little disappointed when I didnt meet my goal. Oh well, the good thing about races is that there will be more.

51:10 on my garmin. Not sure of the official time yet.

Last year I ran a 54:49 at this race.
