Good run today! For some reason, I had 5 miles on my schedule, but it turned out to be a 4-mile run. Not that that was a problem! It was a little warmer today than it has been, about 48 F, so I didn't wear the base layer, just my long leggings, long-sleeved tee-shirt, and zipper jacket, and that was just about right.
For once, my stomach wasn't wonky, so I think that really helped. I felt good the whole way. I had a cup of coffee and a cup of hot chocolate (made with soy milk, two heaping spoons of cocoa, and a teaspoon of honey) before my run. I didn't get started until noon, but I didn't get hungry, so I think the cocoa is a good before-run food. Maybe the protein powder is hard on my stomach. I didn't used to ever eat anything solid before or during a run. Or maybe I've just been having a hard time lately with stress and lack of sleep and such. Today I was in a pretty good mood and slept well and for once wasn't worrying about one thing or another, so that could be it, too. Anyway, good run.
I still haven't been doing my midweek runs, but I should be able to resume this week. The snow is gone from the driveway, and it's mostly dry enough to run on. The front section is still muddy, but I can either run on the grass beside it or just go back and forth on the non-muddy part. Only three weeks now until the race, so I want to get back to doing the midweek runs to keep my legs limber.
