A longer mid-week run with cookie's and cake
Headed out with Stratford AC tonight for the weekly social run. I was planning on doing about 6 miles but just followed the lead and I was out for nearly 8 miles in the end, average 7.45mms. I was going to run with a slower group but glad I pushed myself to go a bit quicker as felt really comfortable, a bit of back pain but bearable. Plus my lovely mate Emily had made everyone lots cookies and cakes for when we got back - ate far too many!!
I had a bit of a dizzy turn at work yesterday - ultra embarrassing. I think a combination of increased milleage, dehydration, a nose bleed, lack of sleep and not enough carbs may have contributed - I'm not making this marathon training sound great am I? Anyway I went home and rested up for the day - and numb my mind with a Channel 5 movie - strangely compelling viewing!! Only a minor blip but a bit of a wake up call that I do need to refuel properly so I'm piling in the calories this week!! Cooking after after training seems such a chore but going to start planning out my meals next week so I get a balanced of everything I need and pop a few multi-vitamins along the way.
I've promised my legs that I'm going to take it easy on the lunchtime run tomorrow!!!
Heading to get some zzzzzzz now - another must!
