If it's good enough for Michael Phelps..

I finally uploaded some songs to my new blue ipod and in addition to my go to 80s hair bands, I added some Lil Wayne. I read that the fish listens to him before his gold medal races, so I figured he might get me through some harder workouts. It worked for my long run today and hopefully the fact that he is going to jail wont bring me bad mojo. I also tried out a new fuel. I went with something that Bree used to use - fresh squeezed grape juice and some sea salt. It. Was. Awesome. I have still been having some major issues with the nutrition during runs where I have to have something other than water, and have been trying anything and everything (sometimes more than once), and this really worked. I am going to keep using it and hope that it stays good to my tummy. Thanks Miss Wee! Today's run was a 2 hour run and as I got in the elevator my garmin decided to die on me, and I was too lazy to go back. Even though I knew it was dead, I kept looking at it to see how much time had passed or how far I had gone. Seriously, even after 10 times I kept forgetting. During the run I saw a new all time low. There was some guy running the 1k loop smoking a cigarette. Not smoking post run or pre run (which would have been gross too), but he was running WHILE smoking. I couldnt stop staring at him as he was running around the loop. I was dying to take a picture, but once again I left the house sin camera. Hopefully I will see this guy again before he has a heart attack.
Chris and I decided that our younger dog is getting too fat, so I made him take the dogs running. They made it two miles before they had to stop and when they got home they were in this position during my entire 3 hour trainer ride. Either they were really tired or the site of me riding for hours put them to sleep. Probably the latter as it almost put me to sleep. I would have passed out had my ass not hurt so bad. It is still not ready to sit in the saddle for that long.
