Notes This was a very good run. But that isn't how it started ....

I had an upset stomach over the first 3+ miles. Essentially the same as Monday when a tried a new pre-run meal of cream of rice, whey protein isolate and peanut butter. I either ate way too much (both days) or something in that combination doesn't settle with me. I'll probably try a lighter version of the same when I get a chance. I'm also wondering if the pre-run meal was a factor in feeling so solid over the last 4 miles of this one.

Always something to learn out on the roads ....

Next week is going to be challenging from a running perspective .... Whatever I end up doing, it's likely I won't be syncing up until next weekend.

Notes Easy, low-heart rate run. Felt okay except it seemed my heart rate monitor was lagging (hopefully it wasn't my heart!). There just seemed to be a delayed reaction between bpm of my run and walk periods as I tried to keep my bpm between 122 and 133.

5.5M EZ

 

Summary

Name 5.5M EZ
Location Houston, TX
Start Time 6/9/2014 5:07 AM (UTC-05:00) Category My Activities:Running
Distance 5.91 mi Time 00:49:29.0
Time Moving 00:49:29.0 Stopped 00:00:04.0
Average pace 08:22 min/mi Max. pace 07:01 min/mi
Weather Sunny; 77.4 °F
Notes Legs felt tired today; left hamstring and calf especially. Surprising after yesterday's rest. Tired eating about an hour before this morning's run (rarely do I eat before morning runs). Didn't notice an impact either way. Probably keep experimenting with different fueling approaches over the summer.
