Superman's secret is hydration

June 21, 2011 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: 90, hot

Comments:
45 MED 20 HOT

terrain- pretty flat
surface- mostly canal, road
sleep- 8.5
hydration- 10/10 :)

workout- 9/10. i was going to run in the morning, but i decided to spend the day making sure i was hydrated, and once i got out of work i did my run. it was certainly hotter than if i had run in the morning, but the abundant water in my system helped immensely. felt pretty great and faster in general, despite the heat. I would say that most of the run was more of a fast medium, and the hot was slightly faster but not by too much. Was beginning to feel tired near the end, and when i finished i felt kind of exhausted, but in a good way. Oh, and at the very beginning my Achilles tendons felt kind of strained, i suspect it was one of the steep hills i happened to ascend the day before. went away pretty quickly though, and they didn't bother me on the hill at the end of today's run.

OTR- df, str, ft drills, tilts

oh, and the reason for the title is because Superman "absorbs" the energy of the sun, and that's kind of how i felt today, since i was so hydrated. yeeeah.
