Sunset Bay SP - various trails with CA

August 26, 2017 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: warm, nice

Comments:
Slept in with CA along a road in Sunset Bay SP. Drove to the South Cove, where I made coffee and CA did her AM yoga-strength routine, all with the "OR!OR!OR!OR" of a billion sea lions in the background! Pretty great.

We relaxed and drank coffee there 'til it was time to run. I'd drank all my coffee (maybe "a liter", all creamed) beforehand.

Rough run. It was nice, pretty, and cool...but I just felt like ASS. Just tired and heavy. Part of it was post-workout and weights, but I also felt...like hungover! Yeesh.

A couple thoughts:

1. Drinking too soon, after finishing my antibiotics (That said, CA and I shared *a beer* on Friday night, only).
2. Dairy. There's something quirky about dairy. I've been noticing a sensitivity with heavy cream, in particular, where I feel asthmatic after drinking it. Then, after I pounded a decaf Americano with HC from allan bros, I felt out of breath *working*, last week.

That could be it, because (as happened in Yachats about a month ago) I felt incredibly heavy and sluggish, during the run, and the rest of the day.

Regardless, CA and I drove down to the main bay, then ran a myriad of winding coastal trails back to South Cove, then up a ridgeline, then back to the van. Good, solid vert, and some decent grinding by CA. Good run. Finished with x6 strides.

Rest of the day:
- showered
- went to Coos Bay, and took in the "Blackberry Fest"
- had beers and snacks at 7 Devils Brewery (Good food, mediocre beer)
- sunset at back at the park

Good day, but yeah, sluggish!
