Well, for every wow there gotta be a whoa I guess lol...
As good as my run the other night was, tonight was equally as bad.
I shouldn't say that, the first 1k was awesome, it was at about the 1.7 mark that it all started to come apart at the seams. The breathing was going fine, but here's a word to the wise, never eat egg salad prior to running, NEVER. I was belching sulfer from 1.7k on, it was pretty horrible. On top of that, I started to get a cramp in my left leg, upper thigh that was annoying at first but proceeded to intolerable. As soon as I would think it had passed and tried to jog again it returned. After 2.5 I just gave up and decided to walk the rest. Then, lo and behold, at the 3k mark my old friend numb foot decided to chime in as well.
All in all, pretty disgusting..... BUT glass half full point of view, I got out there and did almost 4k again lol...
On the other bright note, no MAJOR weight loss this week, but the pound and a bit I did lose was enough to put me over the 25 pound gone mark.... that feels pretty damn awesome!
So, no need for a physical recap this evening, the post above sums it up pretty well.
Oh well, can't all be sunshine and roses..... lol
I had to drop off my truck this morning for some minor work before a family vacation... Figured I'd just run home... Well let's just say the shins and ankles aren't holding up so well today after pounding them on pavement for 5k yesterday - so it turned into a brisk walk.
ReplyDeleteHey, at least we were out there doing it!
