Beach Run

TIME: 36 minutes
DISTANCE: about 4 1/2
PLACE: Vermilion, OH
TIME: 7:30 pm

Got my run in today in the middle of my road trip back from NYC. Have been feeling guilty about my poor ability to manage runs while on vacation so it made me happy especially to stop in this beach town and run. At about 15 minutes in I tried to focus on my form more, and around 20 minutes I started to really push the pace past my comfort level and I finished strong. Jumped in lake eerie when done - felt good. smelled bad.

FOOD today - breakfast was capn crunch knock off. the kind in a bag. ha..

mid morning snack of a thing of apple sauce and actually more apples from mc donalds accompanied by a coffee.

lunch - foot long veggie sub and chips. yyyyeah i ate a whole foot long. also had a pop with lunch for caffeine but was thinking that maybe i should have found a different solution to give me energy because the pop just ended up making me feel like shit.

dinner - just snacked on trail mix after my run because i wasnt hungry after big lunch. i think i like having a bigger lunch and smaller dinner. may continue to work this way, but really i still need to make sure im eating substantially. trail mix just doesnt cut it when it comes to nutrition. I need to do more research on a balanced diet. I feel lacking lately. I need to start buying more fish especially, and lots of fruits and veggies and beans and quinoa, start collecting recipes, and growing herbs. More goals. Hopefully I act on them . . .

Why am i still awake? I'm exhausted. But I wanted to write this before i went to bed because i know my next two days will be even crazier and who knows where ill be dragged too.

i do NOT like skimping on the blog.
