No run today.  :(  Between being homeless for most of the day and moving into my new apartment I just was not able to get out.  Also, I do not yet have internet access at my apartment, which is why I am just now (Thursday) getting to my blogging.  Hopefully I can get it soon.

13 easy miles.  It's amazing how rusty one day can make you feel.  Not a bad run though.

Easy run before work.  Signed up for the Logan Peak Trail race today, so I will be joining Jon and Cody on that one.  Hopefully I don't die.  I think I have the mileage, but I need to do some more mountain climbing I think.  I will try and do some in the next couple of weeks.  Tomorrow I might run the TV towers.

Not a good run today.  I took an hour long nap before my run and then set out to run the BST and TV towers.  Run did not start well, and never got better.  I felt really out of it and even nauseous at times...and this was before I even got to the mountain.  I got as far as the first shoulder of the trail to the TV towers and decided just to bag it as I was feeling dizzy and ill.  It may have been that I hadn't taken time to fully wake up before trying to run, or maybe it was because my nutrition has been terrible the last few days as I have been trying to restock my groceries on a very limited budget, or maybe a combination.  Anyway, I ran back home and fixed myself a giant plate of spaghetti and felt better afterwards.  Good news is that the climbing itself wasn't making me tired at all.  Legs felt like they had plenty of juice to go the whole way.
