Hindsight is 20/20
So here goes, I ran 4 miles with my running partner (or attempted to anyways!) After a picnic at work where the managers cooked for staff. Needless to say, I was helping to prep food and cooking on the grill. I started my run and got a side stitch in my first mile. Heat + pain= grouchy runner. :( Still, we kept running. After about 3 miles in, I got goosebumps. Now why on Earth would I get goosebumps while running in 85 degree weather. Needless to say, I was a tad concerned. So we walked for a bit. We jogged the last stretch. I was still wondering what in the heck was going on. I mean really, I ran 7 miles on Sunday so why would a piddly 4 miles (in my sarcastic voice) be so bad?! I walked back into the building...after about 3 minutes in AC, I began sweating like a pig. Then it dawned on me...Drink more water! And eating more food would be good too! One cup of coffee, one bottle of water and one diet coke does NOT do a body good. A protein shake and a grill chicken salad is not enough either. Hindsight is really 20/20!
