Running

So I have been doing fairly well with running. Lately, however, it feels like the first half of my run is great-beyond my expectations, then I crash. I can't figure it out. Yesterday, it was shear exhaustion (my first 630 am run, I figured). Today I ran at noon. I had a headache earlier, took Motrin, but it didn't go away and seemed to get worse as I ran. Dehydration maybe (although I did drink at least 2 large glasses of water this morning....).

So I am back to running at 7 pm. It seems to be what works for me and it also keeps my eating in check for the day. Running after dinner, not the best, but I usually eat a smaller portion that way. I wonder if I will push the time later as it gets hotter here. I am not really running for any reason other than health, and maybe running a 5K to raise funds for children's cancer research...(in my way future). I don't seem to be losing any weight though and I want those extra 10 "cancer" pounds to go away (weight I gained since my daughter's diagnosis) I decided to do some Gilad again. His Body sculpting series after 20-25 minutes of running...I am not sure where I am going to fit him in yet. Definitely my days "off" (which technically should be tomorrow, but I am going to try to a real run tomorrow evening instead of this crap I have been doing).

So there. I am really trying to eat well, run well, etc. I hope that next Friday's visit to Miami doesn't make me lose my motivation. It seems to have that effect. EUA post chemo-I am nervous, terrified, want to hear "all clear," get her push of hep, then get the hell out of that nasty, dirty, gross city.
