Mile by Mile

Still raining opted to run in the gym. I should invest in a light water proof jacket so I can run in the rain without being completely soaked.

Felt slow, and was slower than usual. But the reason for the slowness was allegies making it difficult to breathe and a killer side cramp at mile 3. So I think I did pretty good- I finished the miles I wanted to finish and did it in a relatively okay time (only 1 minute longer than usual…)

Thought running at the gym may help out the allergies… It was a good  run, not my strongest- I had to pause a few times but for my foot. Probably because I have been wearing flipflops constantly this summer.

The humidity is crazy today, and the temps are climbing up. Finished my 20 mpw. Rather disappointed in this week’s excerise and lack of good nutrition. I want to blame it all on these horrendous allergies and the brief trip to Philly but I was rather lazy this week. Hoping next week is better…

Allergies gave me trouble at the 2 mile mark– opted to do five instead of the 6 that was planned. Thankfully though, all this coughing nonsense is officially allergies so there is no need to stop running although I may have to do shorter more frequent runs.

Should be 4 miles or over… time is a guess but I felt fast throughout… Had to deviate from the normal route. Still trying to decided if I am sick or if it is nasty allergies- I now have a wicked cough but running comes easy. It’s actually annoying. So glad I got out to run today!! After being in Philly and the past gyms runs, I have been dying to get outside to run. Hopefully the weather will cooperate for an outdoor run tomorrow too!
