Some parts pretty, some parts downright ugly.
But all in all, 10 miles were completed this afternoon under a cloudy sky at an average pace of 10:38 = not bad considering I took 3 extended walk breaks.
Here are some things I learned today on my run:
- My husband really loves me (he called in sick today so I could run & have a break).
- I get sunburn regardless of the amount of clouds in the sky.
- Clif Shot Bloks & Sport Beans DO NOT MIX WELL TOGETHER.
- It's really hard to find 10 miles of safe roadway in Glassboro.
- REALLY prefer Powerade Zero over water in my Camelbak.
- I really suck at hydration.
- Fiber One bars are yummy, but NOT on running days.
- I have GOT to use the Foam Roller every night....my knee is killing me now.
O.K., sorry about the Debbie Downer post today. I'm tired & need to get some sleep. Only two weeks til the Philly half marathon. I'll definitely finish...just may not be the prettiest ending. Maybe I WILL just do the Donald in January...it's a new medal...but feel like a wus if I don't do the full marathon.
