5 Miles on the W&OD Trail

Exercise
I ran five very inconsistent miles. I was feeling alternately tired and energized. I think it had something to do with the slope of the trail. But also I think my poor sleep and a lot of walking at the Smithsonian yesterday contributed to my overall lethargy. I was trying for a pace of 9 minute miles, but my splits were all over the place. I walked a bit in mile #4.

Nutrition
Last night Handan cooked salmon and mashed potatoes and a nice salad.  Later at night we all had chocolate truffles which Tolga bought for us at the Reston Town Center.  A great night's eating, but not great for my run this morning.  I felt like I had no fuel in the tank... even after having a PowerBar this morning.
