2 Mile Hot Dog Run

Day 100 Sunday run.  Ran 1.25 miles, walked a lap eating a hot dog and drinking some Gatorade, then ran .5 miles for total of 2 miles covered in 27:56

Did the mile in 12:59.  Faster than last week, but I need to get so that my mind is freer to think instead of just staring at my feet thinking one more step, got to keep going.  When I finished the next lap, I took a couple swallows of Gatorade, then ate the hot dog.  I wanted to add drinking more to prepare for having to drink 3 beers along the Big Man route, and while I didn’t drink too much, I could feel what I did drink sloshing around in my stomach with the hot dog.  After my last two lap run, I stretched.  I spit some and felt close to a belch turning into a hurl, but didn’t.



My priorities for getting trained fully for the August Big Man Run are.

  1. Slowly Build up the run to 5 miles

  2. Slowly increase running with hot dogs

  3. Slowly add in fluid, then beer.


Celebrated by coming home and having a bacon and onion dog with chips.
