illin'

i have been a little under the weather last few days. thats why i like to soak up those good days as much as i can because we all know things go up and things go down. its not like i have been severely ill or anything, but a little out of it nonetheless. night-time and day-time niquil.

scheduled today, a 10-miler because this is a step-back week (woo!). i did 6.5 miles. i am little disapointed that i quit but such is life. i did ok for being sick. i will probably get some more miles in later tonight or tomorrow.

my splits were back to 11 minute range which is fine. 11:03, 11:10, 10:57, 11:22, 11:41, 11:13. its all good.

i wore a wicking-type shirt for the first time, but then i wore a regular t-shirt over it. not such a good idea. i do believe the wicking shirt wick-ed all the sweat onto my other shirt. i felt gross and my shirts felt heavy, and just squishy and gross.

since i have been going to The Lakes for the last several long runs, i have started to recognize people. old man, man who runs with poodles, cute self-conscious girl, hot girl, ripped girl, run like the wind girl, ripped-run-like-the-wind-girl, cute girls who look the same and always run together (sisters?), cute hot perfect girl who is unfortunately too tall, and nipply girl. hey, everybody has to have a name.

  • Feel better B!!!!!!!!
    Wearing a wicking shirt by itself is a much better idea. I think you will be able to tell quite a difference. :)

  • Hard to be nipply with a "uniboob, bra" lol. Anyways hope you feel better soon. Any run when feeling under the weather is a good run.

  • But dude, if she's the cute hot perfect girl, how can she be too tall? Just wondering. I'm hoping you're feeling better. And I have names for folks too -- just nowhere near as interesting.
