….of da feet!
I have been working very hard to increase my jogging distances and running endurance. DS, his brother-in-law and I are hoping to run the Las Vegas Rock’n’roll 1/2 marathon in 2014.
My current goal is to finish a 10k. So far I have managed to run 5.82 miles (not quite 10k). This morning I got up, ate an egg and some toast, thinking it would “fuel” me…and avoiding coffee due to its …..effective….laxative effect. So far, I have been successful in improving with every run.
Till today. I definitely hit the wall. I ran 3 miles and then….stopped. I literally could not run another step. Clearly, I did not eat enough carbs and when my glycogen stores ran out….so did my energy.
So, 3 miles from home and with sore, weak legs, I walked……slowly……home. And ate some carbs.
After all, tomorrow IS another run!
