I switched my long run this week from tomorrow to today because there’s rain in the forecast tomorrow but not enough of an accompanying temperature cut to make me want to be in it for over a couple hours.
Took some Luna Moons, which is unusual for me, I don’t usually eat anything for a med-long run, but I didn’t eat any breakfast, so thought I’d test them out. Very tasty, but as usual with chewy things and me on the run, I had one near-choking experience. I actually felt pretty energized a while after taking them, but I’m so cynical about such things, never knowing if it was the Moons or some good songs on the mp3 player, or seeing cute guys running the other way.
Other than that, I just happened to be in the park at the exact moment the swimmer’s horn went off for the Philadelphia Triathlon, so that was fun to see a sea of bobbing heads take off. Was worrisome though when, on the way back, an hour and a half later, there were still about 4 people finishing up the swim. My heart was with them in battle.
