So I came home from babysitting today and was totally tired. So I took a nap but I set an alarm to get up and run around 7:30pm. Of course the alarm went off and I didn't want to get out of bed so I just reset it for later. But after lying there and thinking I realized that:
- if I continue sleeping I won't sleep tonight
- i'll probably feel more up to run if I get out of my comphy bed
Yay for me! I ran 15 minutes (and a few seconds) one way and 15 (and a few seconds) the other way. I was fairly confident with my pace that I would be at least 3 miles in. I got about 3.25 in a little over 30 minutes. That was good, I'm happy. The weather is finally a bit better outside. Hopefully it just keeps getting better.
So, this weekend I went on
Operation Hydration and I think it was successful. I drank tons of gatorade and water (and caffeine free soda). And I ate pretty regularly. My body is showing physical signs of being better hydrated and my run tonight went really well. Maybe this will help with my running rut. Operation Hydration caused a 4 pound weight gain but I know it was mostly water and I think it is what my body just really needed. If I am really going to run this marathon, I need to stop caring about the number on the scale.
