End of the world run!

So I went out for a nice run yesterday, well it was cloudy as usual for my long Saturday run!  I was hoping to run 10 miles, but was having some knee issues.  I started off slow and picked it up between miles 3 and 4.  I had to deal with the normal red lights and GEESE!  MAN I HATE GEESE!  They can just mess up a good run.

After 7 miles my knee was really barking, so I was just going to run home and call it a day.  The total was 8.25 and I am ok with that.

I found 2 things that are killing my long runs.

1. My headphones suck.  They start to bother me at 3 miles.  Thinking of buying some yurbuds.

2.  I get dehydrated way too fast.  I can’t carry water in my hands or wear a belt that has a water bottle on it.  I tried that once and it bothered me too much.  Thinking of a water backpack!  Anyone have any luck with these on long runs?

Will try and do 12 next week!  As for the diet.  Much better.  I am down 3 pounds this week!  NICE!
