Cold Runs

I ran a 5k on Wednesday night. I went faster than MP. I didn't have a lot of time and just wanted to get my heart rate up. 3.21 miles in 21:37.

I haven't done either of my two training runs for the week so knew I had to get one in today. I drank plenty of water throughout the day, made sure I ate right, and prepared myself mentally for a long one. I had accounting, then calculus tutoring, and 4 hours of free time. It was SUPER windy in Taizhong today. With one bottle of water, another of Supao, and a small bag of M&M's, I began my run. The track was not crowded as this weather is to Taiwanese people as a blizzard or snow storm is to Canadians. After mile 15, I looked and saw that my drinks were gone. I looked for only 20 seconds or so but didn't find them. I decided to run three more miles and then call it a night.
My run ended just short of 18 miles. 17.98 miles in 2:28:41. I wasn't too sore after, just hungry, thirsty, and cold.
