It's not been the greatest week for running.
Monday's run was just ok.
Wednesday's run was the best run of the week. I ran with my buddies and did the 5 mile gimghoul route. It was refreshing - the weather was good (cool and breezy) and I felt good afterwards. But running that route at 6:30 on a weeknight put us in the midst of a good bit of traffic, making it hard to have conversation.
This morning I attempted my 8 mile run, mapped out several weeks ago on walkjogrun. I've been looking forward to trying this route ever since I mapped it. But I had a weird feeling before I even headed out this morning. The weather was strange - cool yet very muggy. I just didn't have the energy to sustain a run. I did a lot of walking and made a few short cuts. Nothing hurt and I didn't have my low blood sugar feelings (although I did eat 2 chomps in the hopes of gaining some energy) but I just had no energy. I probably completed 8 miles today, since the original route was about 8.5 miles, and I'm guessing I cut off about a half mile in my short cuts.
Oh well. Good excuse for a rest week.

And it has NOT been a good week for posting on this blog. I posted a long, loving comment after last week's 10k and it NEVER made it to my baby.
