July 4, 2024: Run, SW

AM: Another walk-run, was able to slow down but keep running. Good! Woke up heavier than expected, and had a bit of dizzy spell after my run, so likely too many carbs over the last few days combined with a lot of salt. PM: SW: 32 kg x 6 x lf OTM x 10 sets, no HRM but checked at end and saw 131
