Long Run & High Winds
Ξ September 14th, 2008 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Chat |
Today being Sunday I had another long run to do and now I am back to high mileage so I had to do 11 miles. I started a little earlier than a few weeks ago so I could run outside longer before finishing it at the gym on a treadmill. I did 6.5 miles outside and the rest inside. Like I said before, the gym opens at 9AM which is way too late for me to start a long run. So I got up early and started around 7:40AM or so. As the long runs get longer in the next few months I will have to get up earlier and earlier… Fun!
I was pretty dead after the run and I tried to take a nap but couldn’t sleep because of the high winds we got here in the afternoon. They came from a mix of cold front and the hurricane Ike. The wind was so strong that my bed was shaking!
My diet went to shits today. I cheated with cheese, pretzels and ice cream. I was a bit depressed I guess and I didn’t give a crap about the diet anymore. Hopefully my long run will offset the damages I did by cheating and it won’t show too much on the scale tomorrow morning!
