43F, foggy.  More weird weather for Abilene.  7:42 AP.  Such a nice, flowing, easy, gliding run - you know, just the sweetest feeling kind - until about 5 miles from home.  Then I had...issues.  My bowels were paying for a weekend of total gluttony.  Somehow I made it home with clean underwear and no pit stops -- it took a few short bouts of walking to contain things.  But the joy of running through the refreshing cool mist was gone, gone, gone.

Well, if you messed yourself, at least the fog would have kept anyone from seeing you.

Did you drink some of that Atkins stuff?

Our weater was foggy (probably 98% humidity) and 72 degrees....ugh!

LOL...I know the feeling all too well.

Nice run and I'm glad you made it home without messing your pants.

Funny about runners....... we all have been there. I echo IJR about the Atkins stuff. Haven't you heard about "drop, squat and ____!" I'm a pro.
