Feelin Weeeeeeird

I've had kind of a weird week. On Tuesday, I just started feeling...weird. I don't know how else to describe it. I was sooooo tired and my body just started feeling not normal. I went to the run on Tuesday night because I thought I was just tired, but half way through the workout, I felt like it was something more than that.

So Thursday and Friday I stayed home from work, and I didn't run at all. I felt really guilty for not getting my runs in, but I just felt weird. This morning I was feeling normal again, so I met up with a few teammates and we went for a run in the park. It started not so great. After 3 miles, I thought I wasn't going to make it. Then around 6, I felt great. I finished with about 12 miles and actually felt pretty good.

But then a few minutes after my run, I started feeling weird again. I knew I was feeling weird when I didn't want my post-run pastry. (I still bought a Boston cream donut from Bouchon, but I'm saving it for later.) All I wanted post-run was watermelon. Luckily Whole Foods was nearby. I ended up scarfing down watermelon chunks as I waited for the subway. I don't like this whole feeling weird thing. I think it has something to do with electrolytes. Post-run, I was COVERED in salt. I don't think that's good. It means my sweat is really salty, and I'm probably losing a lot of electrolytes. I think I'll have to try salt tabs next time. But I'm sure no one here cares about my electrolyte levels, so instead, here's a picture of the cat.

He went to the vet today and other than very dirty ears, he's very healthy. Yay!
