An off day

It happens. You wake up at 5:30am for a 4 miler and the thunder is so loud it rocks the windows. I went back to bed.

I was able to get out at 6:00 after Scott got home. I haven’t run in the evening for some time. It was windy. My legs were dead. It was humid, too.

I walked quite a bit after having to stop at around the 1.75 mile mark to use the bathroom at BK (pleasant!). After that, it was hard to get the legs going again. I also felt a little dehydrated and lightheaded. I took it easy for the last half.

I guess they can’t all be great runs, right? This is one of those days I’m just glad I made it out there.

In weight loss news, I’m down about 7 lbs since I started tracking my food at the beginning of July. I’ve calculated I can get down to my goal weight by the end of 2012 if I keep a goal of about a pound a week.
