[QUOTE="s_k_s, post: 750745, member: 27169"] Thurs 29/1 - Surface = pavement/tarmac So 2 part update. Back to back sessions are difficult so need the day rest between sessions. When I got up yesterday I was definitely glad that it was a rest day. Let's start with the run which was good on this really cold and snowy day. One of those days when you know if you can go for a run today then you can go on any day. Energy levels were okay and I was very careful in keeping my pace slow. Tried to start each run interval slowly and then build my pace up over the 5 mins and then finish the interval fast. Quads hurting today. Effort was good in the first half but as before the 2nd half was much more difficult with the breathing in the latter stages being more laboured. After the run had a nightmare episode after doing my cool down. When I got home did some more exercises which was probably overdoing it. Jumped in the shower after that. After the shower started feeling light headed so laid down on the bed. Kept on feeling worse so thought it was my BS dropping. Went downstairs and grabbed the first thing I could find which was a pepperami. Didn't make me feel any better and my head was spinning and I started feeling sick. Stumbled into the toilet and I was sick and fell onto the floor. Managed to get up and check my BS and it was 5.8. Checked my BP and it was down to 80/50. Turns out the shower was hotter than normal on this cold day and that caused my BP to fall dramatically. Getting up after lying down probably made it worse. Have been checking regularly after that and thankfully it's increasing slowly. What a nightmare and all because of a hot shower! Day 23 - 48 mins - Run 5 mins.
