So this week there has been an increase in rain, thank you rainy season. Thus, my runs have suffered. I know I could run in the rain, and I will probably start doing that soon, but right now I love running with music. If I run with music in the rain, two things will happen. One: My iPhone will be water damaged and Two: I will be electrically shocked in the head thus keeling myself over. Both are pretty bad outcomes. I do know my running course well enough that I could run without music or my running app and still know about how far I went.
Anywho, on today's run I was pretty happy with myself. It is definitely getting more humid here. So that is something to watch out for. Today was a nice 7K run, and tomorrow will be an even better 16K run! I am definitely eating a banana and taking some of those energy gels tomorrow. I will also be taking water (very important) with me on my run. I might even take an extra water bottle with me! Back to today's run. I ran a "new" course today. That's one thing I love about running. You get to go to places and discover parts of your city that you didn't even know were there. I guess if I was running in OC things wouldn't be as much of a surprise, but still, you notice things running that you never would have seen if you were in a car.
I did get confused on my run today. Somehow I thought I ended up a little north of my apartment building even though I was running south. I got very confused and really had a brain fart. I was like, I am running south and I looped north somehow. Then it dawned on me that I was still south of my apartment and had to run in the opposite direction to get home. New courses are fun, but sometimes confusing. And even today's 7K run I should have taken water. New rule, over 5K water is with me!
Follow my run and can't wait to update everyone tomorrow!
