Don't be yourself up! It's part of the process, Use that to go back and think/remember how you felt, what you ate/drank, sleep the night before.. etc.. things like that which might have effected you and either write them down or mentally note them b/c when another day like that occurs you can possibly find factors and then eliminate them in the equation for the future.

If possible, try to train about the same time during the day that you'll be racing so you'll be used to the temperature. Oatmeal is a good start to a training session. Make sure you give it plenty of time to digest. Keep smiling too. A good attitude and positive thoughts go a long way. It's cheesy, but it works for me. Best of luck.Bullethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11335837465731395848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8135889604674524651.post-68253098392767190072007-05-11T08:11:00.000-05:002007-05-11T08:11:00.000-05:00Are you running with a heart rate monitor?Are you running with a heart rate monitor?Allezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03652584784942296163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8135889604674524651.post-17145072316978734992007-05-10T19:15:00.000-05:002007-05-10T19:15:00.000-05:00Just down a lot of water.

I went through the same thing in NYC last summer, it was humid and brutal. Keep getting out there.Dances with Corgishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09116855540826963649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8135889604674524651.post-9158410705050150832007-05-10T18:46:00.000-05:002007-05-10T18:46:00.000-05:00Yep, go back out and give it another try tomorrow....Yep, go back out and give it another try tomorrow. We all have shitty training days, and there could be any number of reasons why. Here let me list you a few: poor sleep, poor nutrition, poor hydration, hot/humid weather you're not used to, compromised mental state, allergies, drinking too much wine (oops), people watching, people not watching, trying too hard to run fast, trying too hard to run slow, having to pee, having a bad hair day. You get the idea. <BR/><BR/>You gotta shake it off and keep movin'! :-)Andra Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08061332679414246811noreply@blogger.com
