You know what sucks about marathon training? You are hungry all the time… and not just “oh
give me a few carrots and I will be good” hungry. Like “somebody give me a
whole GD chicken and leave me the hell alone” hungry. Yeah…
It’s not pretty and it’s certainly not lady like. Scott
knows to just drop a goat in the cage Jurassic Park style and run for the hills
after I do a major run .
Yesterday I ran 18 miles (in a row!) then I had an egg white sandwich from
Paradise for breakfast, it didn’t fill me up but I was too excited to get to
the lake to care too much. Scott also brought me a banana and some Gatorade to
help me recover, running that much seriously kicks your ass. Then I swam for an hour or two, kayaked around
the lake and just generally relaxed with the hubs. This was all fantastic but
by 4pm I was ready to EAT and because I had run 18 miles and then swam for a
little while, I had calories to spare. So we went all out it was a sausage,
extra cheese, hold the rabbit food and leave your dignity at the door pizza. It
was delicious!!! I am still hungry today and its killing me. I had a big lunch
of rotisserie chicken and a giant salad but I still could eat a couple foot
longs from Subway (Yeah, I said it! Don’t judge).
This is me when I am hungry. Again… this is a judgment free
zone, so lay off me, I’m starving!
