W5 - 2nd run

  • Weather: 70+ degrees, no rain, low humidity
  • Location: Timber Dr
  • Duration: 4 miles with only 4 interval breaks after the 2nd mile mark
  • Average pace: 11:45
I ran this morning because I had the day off. Good run but I got a cramp around the 2nd mile mark and took a walk break. It worked and and I could run past the usual interval breaks. Ended up taking 4 total walk breaks over the last two miles due to the cramp resurfacing. It was not a big deal, just the usual cramp. I probably didn't eat well yesterday or drink enough water.

I should work on my nutrition. I'm doing weight watchers but I doubt it's the best nutritionally based diet for a runner. Going to do some more research on diet.

Today has been a hard one. Michael Jackson and Farrah died. My aunt is sick in the hospital due to her cancer. It's thought provoking. Makes me want to take care of my health and spend quality time with the people I love.
