Another day at the beach...

Glorious sunshine today at Stinson Beach .. but when the sun comes out, the muppets arrive .. dodging kids, dogs and nerf balls while you are trying to have a relaxing jog gets old pretty fast... might have to switch my long run day to Mondays from now on to avoid the crowds.
Thought I would skip breakfast today and try running on powder .. Hammer Perpetuem .. mixed it with water ... tasted ok.. drank it on my way to the beach... didn't feel particularly energetic..
Forgot my running shoes! So I had to make do with my ordinary runners, no orthotics and no gaiters..
Run started off fine.. but I found that around mile 9 I got really tired... and it was a bit of a struggle after that .. stopped at mile 11. I don't think that powder works very well .. gave me a bit of a gut ache too. Real food next time...
No blisters this week, no issues really... just tired.
Looking forward to getting this thing over with now...
