Sweaty Sunday - 10 miles (third time)

I approached my third 10 mile run fairly casually.

I stayed out late on Saturday, eating a midnight dinner of party food. I slept in on Sunday and delayed the run until late morning. I skipped my usual power breakfast and, instead, ate odd things out of the fridge. I ran from home, choosing a new, untested route on a whim.


It was one of my worst runs of the year. When I finished, I didn’t feel like jumping. I felt like this:


Ten miles may seem like old hat, but running for an hour and 45 minutes is strenuous. I won’t make the mistake of taking it on lightly again.

  2. I'd also like to point out that the picture of you all wiped out and exhausted was not posed. That was a candid photo.
