i'm lyndsey
Tonight’s run was the absolute worst run I’ve had since the hot days of summer. I ate too many sweets and treats this afternoon, and I payed for it. I felt horrible, I had a headache, I got cramps, I had to walk, I had no energy (this was probably compounded by giving blood for the first time last night), and it just all around sucked. I’ll chalk this up to a friendly reminder from the running gods that what you eat before a run impacts your ability to perform.
Oh, and I nearly got locked into the cemetery too. We left for our run about a half hour later than usual and I had no idea they locked it up. Because I had to do a little extra walking I told my partner to go ahead for the last couple K. By the time I got the the gates the security guard was closing them and yelling at me to hurry up! OOPS! Now I know!
Anyways, 5K done in some time I didn’t bother to track, then I hot the gym for 40 minutes of weights. Somewhat of a redemption session.
