I agree with Patty - could just be one of those runs.

I started the coolrunning program and the first week (I started at the 4 week stage) I was not doing well at all! Then suddenly one day, I started running and did a full two+ miles without a stop! Don't know why, and I hadn't had any additional carbs - just increased water. The next time, I had to go back to the 5 week program, but it went smoothly - without getting out of breath. However, I didn't get back up to the full out 2+ mile run.

I keep looking for studies on running (or any endurance activity) and low carbing and I find conflicting information and no definitive explanation as to the effect of low carbing on endurance.
