Went out for a 5 mile loop at Sherman Airfield today. I'm trying to hold onto some of the endurance I've built up this year. Unfortunately, driving out to this spot is pretty time consuming and gas consuming so I don't get out here as much as I'd like. And there are probably not too many more bright and warm days left in this year.
I ran a marathon, then multiple halves & many 10/5ks before gradually becoming fairly sick most of the time. Life came to a crawl due to exhaustion/stomach aches/headaches/achey joints/swelling/wheezing, etc. I finally realized the issues were food related (gluten, oats, dairy and corn) & changed my diet. Life returned to normal! I try to eat natural whole foods & organic processed foods (labels tend to be honest & derivative free.)
As I felt better, I started running again. I try to stick to trails or dirt paths. I hope to train for longer distances because I love doing something I didn't know I could do.
