June 25

Leo had his 3rd round of chemo today & did very well. His strength and positive attitude is definitely an inspiration! He dozed quite a bit from the benedryl they gave him. Sara came over on her lunch break and we all had lunch together. That's nice she takes the time to drive over and visit...it helps pass the time which is a good thing. It was really hot again today & I took my walk after dinner. I knew I couldn't eat regular food for dinner & then walk in the heat so I just had a Pemmican protein bar & took off. I had no energy from the get go & that's not good for a 4 mile walk. I got a new sports watch that has an alarm that goes off at 5 min & at 30 seconds to run. My feet really didn't want to run at all today - just no energy. And I couldn't figure out how to quickly reset my watch - so that was a pain. My stomach cramped up so that's a "no" for the Pemmican bar & I drank too much water which further upset my stomach. I was really hot & sweated a bunch & tried to keep the pace, but by the last mile, I just wanted to finish - I didn't care about the time factor. I went 4.3 miles in 74 min...17.2min/mile. I felt so lousy when I got home I took an ice bath. Today was not so good - I felt like my form was terrible & I wasn't able to correct it, my feet wouldn't move much at all, I ran out of energy, and I started to have doubts that I can do this. Hopefully Saturday will be better.
