Day 45 (10/7): 3 miles / 28:53

Everything about this evening's run felt wrong.  My joints ache, my muscles are tight and my breathing labored.  I feel all around sluggish and, as much as I hate to admit it, I'm guessing it has something to do with my diet.  Let's take today, for example: I started out with a sensible granola bar for breakfast and a V-8 Fusion drink on my way to work.  Then it's all downhill from there.  Lunch was a ginormous bowl of chili with cheese and fritos and dinner was a large helping of beef stroganoff and too many slices of asiago pepperoni bread.  Did I seriously think my body was going to feel good after that?!?  I suppose it's time to start adding more fruits and veggies to my diet and maybe laying off the fatty foods a bit.  Of course, I'm sure last night's martinis, appetizers and cupcakes didn't help, and the box of chocolates the night before might have been pushing it just a bit.  All in all, I think my diet needs a serious makeover.
