16 Miles and Upset Stomach


I tried to hydrate early before the run and drank a ton of Poweraid, a glass of orange juice and took some Airborne to try to fight off this cold. It didn't sit well with my stomach so for the first 6 miles I had to make a lot of rest stops. I'm thankful that they're plenty of woods in my neighborhood. The run turned out well anyway at a time of 2:41:35 at 10:06 a mile. It was a beautiful day and there were plenty of flocking birds like Robins in the yards and the Cedar Waxwings were Pyracantha pulling today. Saw some Red-tailed Hawks in the fields and heard a Red-shouldered Hawk over Sunview Lake. Song and Savannah Sparrows were in the fields. Great day to be alive!
