Damn it was hot yesterday, Ran the loop, didn’t time it. I carried two bottles of water with me, 2 pieces of chicken,some almonds, and a saltone- a saturated with salt prune from a Mexican tienda. It was humid, and was about to rain. 15 minutes into the run I placed the saltone under my toungue. at 45 mins I pissed. @ about an hr I chewed 2.5 chicken pieces then some almonds. I thought it would energize me and give me a boost, but I think it might have slowed me down, or it was just the heat. My friends are telling me that the saltone was actually a Mexican monkey ball, all shriveled up and old.
It got really bad @80% of the run when I passed an apple produce center that had some ammonia gasing out the back door. “Hasta quema los pulmones”I screamed at the workers, they said, “Where” and I pointed to the building. they ran over and started to fan at their noses too. Finished saturated with sweat and fell asleep under a tree near a boatlaunch at Riverfront park.
My legs are sore.
I am trying to get comfortable with 10 so the 6 mile on the olympic triathlon chelanman is easier.
Also planning to ride my bike to Quincy tomorrow. First time I got a flat 10 minutes into the ride and had to hitchhike back to the car for not bringing a repair kit. 8(
