I woke up 2 hours before my run, ate 1 banana, 277 calories worth of oatmeal, then went back to bed.  I drank about 14 oz. of water right before running.  Last night I decided to go a little later than I would normally go to have a little more heat.  I also ran with a shirt (I usually only do that when I'm on a treadmill).  The cloud cover kept the heat around, so even at 6:30, it was still 75 degrees at the start of my run.  It was a warm run!  After, I tried soaking in the ditch in my front yard - it was freezing but worth it.

On my run, I took with me one Hammer Gel (100 calories), 8 oz. of water, 24 oz. of Gatorade (150 calories), and one PowerBar Creamy Citrus Fruit Smoothie Energize Bar (210 calories).  I ate the gel, 1/2 the PowerBar, drank the water and half the Gatorade.
