Arg.... Must get Food and Sleep!

Arg…. So evidently eating is an important part of any training program.

So I have been really working a lot of hours this last week, and have not been getting enough sleep to be sure. Just a lot going on. Well that combined with the fact that I didn’t really eat much today made for a crappy run.

I was suppose to run 8 miles. I started off at 8:12/M pace and went through my normal first mile stiffness. I kept waiting for it to get better but no luck. I was also on a foreign treadmill and kept tripping on it. Obviously the fault of the stupid engineer who’s probably never run before in his/her life. Well maybe after a doe nut truck!

So anyway after three miles I started to feel woozy and decide to stop to get a drink of water. That’s when I decided I was in really bad shape. So I said to myself…”Tom, you don’t have to prove anything to anyone so lets just call it a day”. I of course said this in my head as I didn’t want the people around me to think I was a crazy in addition to being a wimp.

Pretty much I writing off this whole week. I will be back on track on Tuesday, better fed and ready to go!

3.00 miles/24:36/Avg 8:12
