Dreadmill
Headed out from home, up Tongwell Lane then accross to Willen Lake… through Middleton and back around to the canal.
I got to about 8 1/2 miles and HAD to stop! My stomach was literally about to explode. Left J to get home as she was going for a 10 miler. Luckily I was 1/2 mile from the gym so tried to jog back there. Literally only made it about 10 steps at a time thinking at any second “this is it – in front of ALL these people I’m going to humiliate myself”.
Luckily that didn’t happen – I made it to the gym, but was worried about going and running outside again. So ran 12 kilometers on the treadmill (nearly 7 1/2 miles). I knew then that the 4 miles to home would bring me to 20… BUT I was out of fuel! Completely spent, felt cold and drained and didn’t have warm clothes if I had to walk.
Rang home and J came to pick me up… got home and threw up. Right now I feel terrible – HAD to force down food.
Reason for my problems? Hmm, well I drank red wine last night, but not LOADS and don’t usually feel this bad. I also ate beef last night which doesn’t help. Hmmm who knows – just a bad day maybe. Bit worried as there are stomach bugs about, but I’ve not been ill for nearly 2 hours now.
