Saturday Fitness Evaluation

I don't feel good so this won't take long.

WORKOUT
3-mile fitness evaluation

TIME/DISTANCE/COURSE/PACE

My first mile was about 8:04
My second was about 9 minutes (including a stop to take off my pants in the middle)
I finished the third mile was at about 8:21

WEATHER

Below freezing

FEELINGS
My leg didn't hurt. (Ibuprofen right before may have done the trick)
Emotionally, my patience and resistance to frustration was very low. (I was ready to stop by the side of the road and cry at about .5 miles in.)
Mentally, somewhat difficult to maintain the will to keep going.
Physically, tired. (Why?? I sleep fine and plenty long enough.)

Now, about three hours later, I have a headache and I'm nauseous. Perhaps this is a gift from my sniffly babies?

EFFORT LEVEL (1-10, 10=all out):


I was working pretty hard, 7-8

TRAINING PARTNERS
Didn't run w/ anyone

DAYS' EVENTS
Came home and cleaned. Now logging. Will rest for a while today. I want pizza.

SLEEP

Somewhere between 7.5 and 9 hours

DIET
Pretty good, aside from the Pizza. (Wed. dinner and Thurs for lunch)

RESTING HR
??

WEIGHT
Ha! If you don't know I'm not going to tell you!

NIGGLES
Frickin' left calf/tendons/joining tissue. Starts in my left foot (when I run) and moves up the back of my leg, eventually hitting my knee and the left side of my left hamstring.

OTHER CONDITIONING

I didn't condition my hair today, nor will I run anymore or swim or lift weights or even get up to change the channel -- at least not for the next couple of hours.
