Happy Sunday Warriors!
I got my 8 miles (88 laps around the Y track) done yesterday- it wasn't pretty, I will never go longer than 5 again without a sports drink of some kind! I sweat alot and by 5.5 I was having cramp issues in my calves (even wearing compression sleeves (? is that the right term for legs?) on them).
I finished with a bit more walking than I normally would have done, and will go 8 again with sports drinks so I know if that's the issue or a different gait is the issue. My energy level seems to be back to more normal this last week so I'm hoping it'll stay that way the way I'm eating now. (somehow once I leave home for a race the carb issue seem to solves itself eating out more LOL)
Have a great week Warriors
