Seems I have a lot to think about right now with my running. As you can see I ran 12.25 today. I actually had scheduled only 10 but at about 9 decided to just go ahead and run a couple more miles...just for the heck of it.. I may have figured out part of my problem the last few days after reading Slow Joe's comments on his race and also reading a little in the new marathon book I recieved in the mail yesterday (Thanks Der Hammer for the recommendation, I read for about 30 minutes and have already learned several things!). I think I may be getting dehydrated on my runs with the weather heating up to about 65 degrees during most of my runs. I read, in my new book, how much fluid you lose at different temperatures and I know I'm not drinking nearly that much fluid. I think that's why my muscles have felt "stiff" for the last few days and I think this is why I haven't felt "fluid" when running lately. I think I'm just "DRY" and my muscles are stiff... So...Here's what I did: Last night before I went to bed I drank 16 ounces of Powerade and then woke up in the middle of the night and drank another 16 ounces, then before I ran this morning I drank another 16 ounces of water and also carried 16 ounces of Powerade on my water belt and drank it all before I had finished 8 miles of my run. I actually feel much better now than I have for a few days. My run may not indicate, in the short term, an improvement but I was really just trying to keep my heart rate below 139 on this run. I did go back and compare an identical run from December of last year and my heart rate was 12 BPM slower this time on the overall average (I had written a note that the December run was "hard"). I would say today's run was somwhat easy althought I was a bit fatigued bu the end...I think just because of the overall time pouding the ground.

3 He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?†I said, “Sovereign LORD, you alone know.†4 Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD! 5 This is what the Sovereign LORD says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life. |
