Monday Musings

I’ve been a bad, bad blogger. I haven’t been updating much recently. I’m sorry about that. There’s no real reason for it, except that training for Chicago has got me exhausted!

Anywho, a quick recap of my weekend!

  • I ran 15 miles on Saturday. It came in 2 runs because at 12 miles I realized I had used up all my electrolytes and my energy gels weren’t enough to stop my calves from cramping. So I called my dad and my parents came and picked me up. I also did not fuel well at all. I have a new plan: pancakes on Friday and a real breakfast (not just 6 dark chocolate covered almonds!) Saturday before my 16 miler. That was dumb, Melissa, real dumb.
  • I was on call for work and my boss kept calling and harassing me during my run. So much so that my garmin auto paused for 30 minutes of the 3 hours I ran! That’s how much I was on the phone to him! Seriously dude! Leave me alone! Sheesh.
  • I got in the pool for what could be one of the last times on Saturday. Its getting cooler here…supposed to only be in the upper 70’s by the end of the week.

Well, that’s all I got for now. I promise you all I will give you a real post this week. Not just a reblog or a short one. But something real. Promise!

Have a good week friends!
