training? ha!

I'm supposed to be training for a fun run. So I do... nothing special. 8km round the lake, now and then. No matter how much I "train", it still takes me an hour and a half.

On one run I have "a funny turn". Best I can describe it is, I suddenly feel very sick but in my head and mouth, not at all in my stomach. I'm pushing a bit faster than usual.
I slow down, rest and recover then carry on.
Later, I check the record of my heart rate. Most of that run was in the mid-120s, It slowed to 110 then recovered.
But no "feeling of impending doom", a sure sign of a heart attack (so I'm told). If anything, I feel so rotten that I completely forget my *normal* feelings of impending doom :-)
other days, I've run for an hour with even lower heart rate.
On today's run I'm very aware of how I'm feeling -- and it's all very normal.
So, who knows. Just a brief time of feeling really rotten. Then okay... and that's something to be glad about :-)

  1. No way I could run for an hour at any pace.
