Last night was Daylight Savings time and I had a tough time sleeping because every time I wanted to shift positions, I woke up because I am so sore from yesterday. Funny enough, it is mostly my butt. I guess because there were two climbs up and over Miwok. Despite that, we didn't sleep in this morning because we wanted to get Uli out to play ball so we did that and came home and had delicious waffles. I should have mentioned that I have been pretty good about following the South Beach Diet for the past three weeks with a few big exceptions: this morning's waffles, last night's ice cream with hot fudge, yesterday's toast and pizza snack, Friday night's pizza dinner and ice cream with hot fudge, Thursday's rice cracker snack and glass of wine and last weekend's deserts and wine. So I guess I should admit that I have not been good about following South Beach at all. OOps.
Despite my sore body, I had 5 miles to run today so that is what I did after the waffles had a chance to digest. I drove to Fort Baker and ran up and over the Golden Gate Bridge. I had my rain jacket with me but left it in the car because it looked like the rain would hold off for a while. Silly me. It started raining the moment I arrived at the bridge and has not stopped yet. I was soaking wet and the wind was blowing pretty hard. But it was a great run. I felt strong. 5 miles in 52:12 with an average pace of 10:25. I have to say that I was disappointed when I saw that time because I thought I was running much faster than that. Oh well.
