I think the only thing I got out of this workout was misery. It was 84ºf. I know have run in hotter temps. but it is affecting me much more than ever. Also I only managed 5 hrs. and 50 min. of sleep. At 5.94 I did something I have never done in a run before. I stopped by the hospital and had some wonderful cold water from the water fountain. It took about 4 - 5 minutes to walk in, drink, and walk out. Never thought about this option before. But I might take this pitstop again in future runs. With 2 miles to go I was thinking about flagging down a car a begging for a ride home. At 10 I stopped. My achilles area on my right leg was burning. Thought I had a blister, but it was a raw spot. Not sure if something got stuck in my shoe or sock and rubbed it. Hopefully it is not something the shoe itself caused. I took off both shoes and walk home barefoot for .4.
Very hectic schedule tomorrow afternoon and evening. I will have to make sleep a priority over running. It is catching up to me more than I am comfortable with. Tonight at work I am going to really pay for getting up early for my runs. May have to skip all together tomorrow or try to squeeze in about 4.
