RUN: 6.5 miles in 53:30 an 8:15 pace. Very tired at the start, but near 4.5 miles I started to pep up.
SWIM: OWS at NewMelle, 3 loops estimated at 400y in 25 mins.
A very mixed up day. It started with getting up early to take DH to the airport then going straight to my run, then going straight to work. In the mix up, I forgot to pack a recovery meal! So I stopped at a cafeteria only to find pancakes, bagels, muffins...and hard boiled eggs! Next to that big fat strawberries! I had $5 in my pocket so I grabbed 2 of each. Near the checkout, they had Odwalla bars for $1.50, I briefly debated this but grabbed one anyway. I had a long morning ahead and no lunch either. My breakfast was $4.99!!! Why do I get punished like this for eating healthy?!?
And why did I pay $1.50 for an upset stomach?!?
The Odwalla did not set well. I've eaten them recently with only some issues, but this one combined with the bad schedule and stress didn't set well. G*d damn that sucked! As a result I was anxious, buzzy, unfocused, ugh, a long afternoon. Then I had to be home to let the roofers back in. I got home and had a bad lunch that didn't help me to feel anybetter. It took a few hours to clear up.
The run was great, we had a big group and 3 new people. I laugh to think that I couldn't hold on to that pace alone, or could I? I should sign up for a 10K and find out.
The swim was out at the NM quarry. Nice to see once, but too far to drive for such a short swim. My goals were more social though, it was an opportunity to catch up with friends that I've been cutting short lately. I've been saying "once this lab thing is wrapped up...". Well, this lab thing is wrapped up!
