Training Day 22: Run, Interrupted

Today was a bit of a bummer. I went to the park for my long run--4 miles--and I hadn't even gone an eighth of a mile before I realized I needed to pee. I kept going, but by about 1.25 miles in I knew I was in trouble, and at 2.1 miles I had to declare a state of emergency and head home. I think there may be restrooms in the park but I have no idea where they are. Anyway, I was pretty bummed out and was just going to call the day a wash and try again tomorrow, but Dave convinced me to give it another shot. Instead of going back to the park, though, I went to the gym and ran 4 miles on the treadmill, with some hill intervals, for about 38:00. So not a total loss, but still kind of a bummer. Lesson learned for next week! :)
