Tight calves today but otherwise a good run. I feel like my cardiovascular system is still in fairly good condition...it's my changing body that holds me back.....overall felt pretty good and I'm grateful that my fall wasn't worse or kept me down longer. Don't try this at home: Yesterday I was feeling the beginnings of mastitis(a yucky infection that I didn't know pregnant women could get). I have had success treating this at home before with garlic. So I was very diligently popping in whole cloves of garlic and eating them straight. The last clove I ate I guess I did on an empty stomach...baaaaad idea. I was in my room when my body rebelled and I nearly lost my cookies (or I guess my garlic). It was nooo fun. I was too weak to make it to the kitchen and get something in my stomach but luckily I had a few pieces of molasses licorice in my bedroom...it worked..I didn't throw up and my mastitis symptoms are totally gone this morning. Moral of this story...never never never never eat garlic on an completely empty stomach.
