Today I was going to try to run a tempo run. Now there were two factor's that affected this run and both were not positive. First, Pocatello had a wind advisory for last night and through sometime today. I also still had a little bit of stomach issues going.

I started the tempo after two warm-up miles, and the wind just beat me up that the first few miles were awful, and my stomach was aching a little where I felt I needed to use the bathroom. Any way the first several miles were (6:27, 6:23, 6:26, 6:24) awful times for a tempo. My stomach started hurting and the wind was blowing in my face and it was 24 degrees, but I thought to myself how bad do you want to become at better runner, because I was about to slow down and just float the last three miles. But I dug down deep and wanted to at least get better than the last few miles even though the wind felt like it was picking up and my stomach was now not feeling very good and I had to brown code. My last three miles were (6:17, 5:58, 6:18) not great but better than the first few. I was really glad to see my house, especially the bathroom. You can figure out those details yourself.

Kory, this might sound nasty but it works... Take a little apple cider vinegar and water and mix it together and drink it.. It is very nasty but it works. I think that will help you with your stomach problem.

Thanks Barry,

I think it's just the last little bit getting over the stomach flu. I probably won't run anymore today to rest a little to see if that helps. I've been going and going so long that even after this last marathon I didn't think I needed a break or rest period. But maybe the immune system was broken a little after this last marathon.

Hows your sinus infection?

Way to hang in there when the going got tough! That's some solid pacing, especially considering the wind and your illness.

My sinus infection is getting better. I know that drinking that vinegar sounds nasty, but it works. I have drank it and i know it works.. Are you running Thursday with us?
