Challenge Failed
running challengeWelp, I failed. Day five and day six was without a problem. But on day seven I failed to get out early enough. My thought process was: I don’t wanna run this late, otherwise I won’t be able to sleep. So I didn’t. n=7 marked a day of no running.
BUT, maybe this has gotten me into running, who knows. I certainly know that I’ve gotten a lot better at running; it feels a lot better. Today was another day I went out running, a day where I decided to go earlier. However, I found out that the sun is hot. And with a tailwind it is too hot in fact.
Heading out, I had a headwind; this made me run slower, but it had a cooling effect. Because when I got to returning back, I had a tailwind perfectly matching my velocity, meaning I didn’t cool as effectively.
This made me come to the realization, that I should’ve drank a bit more water before running; I couldn’t continue (and no I don’t think it was distance dependent, the distance was shorter than n=6). This also made me realize, that there probably is a reason people run in the morning.
Bye!
