Ugh. Digestive issues today. This past week, I've had a few not-regular foods: Grocery store sushi, Teeccino herbal coffee (two nights ago), 3 fried crab rolls, 3 lamb kabob pieces, 2 beers (last night), and chicken quesadilla (lunch). The rest of my food has been pretty much what I usually eat (egg whites, spinach, tomatoes, some bread, oatmeal, fruit, chocolate, juice, water). Well, now post-run, I feel like I have a clean slate again to eat normal food and not drink (more than 1 beer at a time) until after the marathon. 15 minute warm-up 2x15 min marathon "tempo" (5 min jog between each) cool-down to home The road out is slightly uphill (looks flat) and was into the wind. Overcast day. I was cold even in gloves, long-sleeves, and capris (but my ear warmers got too warm after 2 miles into the run). That pace was probably around a 7:20-7:30/mile. On the return tempo, I was slightly faster, about a 6:48-7:00/mile pace. I think marathon tempos feel funny; they're not super fast like 5k tempos...but it's a little faster than a regular run (unless I'm running with Jack--haha). 2 sets: 25 regular crunches 25 cross-over crunch (each side) 25 reverse crunch (legs only) 25 reverse crunch (legs and upper body)
