´Title was meant to be swollen! Sorry about that!
---------------------------------------

So yesterday a had an Oly scheduled in week 6 of my 20 week training plan for my A race next August.

Will not bore you guys with race report since it wasn´t an important race for me, and the results were not that good.

The thing is...everything was going great until I started running. It was a 4 lap run. Lap 1 did great. Lap 2 I was hurting.... lap 3 I had to walk a lot and lap 4 I was running once again at a good pace. I had been running a lot but the heat in the race was :eek: unbelievable. It totally consumed me.

The weird thing is.... Yesterday after finishing the race I had lots of fluids. From a tomato juice mix, water, water and more water and I didn´t have to pee until 4 hours later. Had plenty hydration during the race but the heat was crazy.

The thing is today I woke up to a somewhat swollen face and when I put on my pants they where a bit tight. Checked me in the mirror and I looked a bit fat. But by the look of my face I could tell something happened that made my whole body swollen today.

Is this normal???? Happened already to any trifuelers out there?

Hyperactive Trifueler!!!! (I refuse to let the status go :p)
