Ended a very long workday with dinner at Chicago's TRU last night. The dinner took 'attention to detail' to an entirely new level and was one of the best I have ever had. But looking at the menu, I knew that there would be a problem finding a combination that would provide the right combination for a long Saturday run. I ended up eating lobster bisque with hominy, suckling pig with a combination of squashes, and a vanilla creme for desert. I was even very restrained on the wine. But even with that restraint and moderately careful planning (and a good breakfast and modest lunch) I still ended up out of energy at mile 4 today. I would like to say that this was an anomaly, but I have found that anytime I go out for dinner anywhere that has rich food, my running suffers the next day.
