it's really very runny and it isn't very funny... 8 - 145.16

Well my whole "race pace" went out the window about 40 minutes in..

I had gone out for hearty breakfast a few hours earlier (the ranchero: scrambled eggs, black beans and cheese in a tortilla bowl with a side of toast and fried potatoes....very yummy) but such a large pre-walk meal was....

a mistake..

About 40 minutes in, I could feel the guts a gurglin' and a churnin' and the building pressure/tension one gets when they gotta go...I had to take a detour to find a rest room and that added 20 minutes or so to my time.. :-(

The rest of the walk was rainy, chilly with both light snow and hail..after my pit stop I felt great and made good time...

So normally before a walk I try and "clean pipes"..which I did this time too..but the second bout was a total surprize..

next week is the big 13 miles..

Time: 244 minutes.. (but I spent 20+ looking for a bathroom so...)
