What have I done to my stomach & 7 big ones
February 6, 2010
This morning a friend and I went out for breakfast at one of those buffet places and boy was that a mistake especially since I hadn’t run my 7 planned miles yet. I could have eaten reasonably healthy, but I set healthy aside for this trip and ate like a junk food junkie! By the time we left my stomach was feeling pretty bad (not used to eating that way anymore) and I knew I was in for a miserable run.
I was right! I jumped on the TM (tomorrow I’m going outside for sure dang it) and took off, the the legs felt great and my heal was feeling pretty good too and actually has been feeling really good this week, but the stomach was in really bad shape.
Normally 7 miles is ho-hum, but with the plantar fasciitis problems and with little running over the past 3 months 7 miles seems pretty long now and with a queasy stomach the whole time it was down right tough!
I have no one to blame but myself. I knew better than to load up on a bunch of junk before a run especially when I’m out of shape. Actually, there isn’t any “GOOD” time to load up on a bunch of junk.
Tomorrow I do 4 miles and it will be on an EMPTY stomach with a nice HEALTHY breakfast after!
Enjoy every step,
