If it weren't for this banana!

Well, after reading some of your comments about whether or not to eat before a run, I have decided to try it. Up to now I have gone out on my run straight from bed with only a drink of water. Laura tells me that being dehydrated can cause cramp! So today I have had a banana and a cup of tea and am waiting 45 minutes before this final run of the programme. It will be interesting to see if I feel any different. As I wait I am just thinking, "I could be out there now half way through my run if it weren't for this banana!"

Enjoy your special run! (I had a banana yesterday too. I didn't wait very long after it before I started though - but then I wasn't doing the final run.)
