7.6 m @ half marathon effort 46:55 (6:10pm)

I felt very tired and dead but better than tuesday or wednesday. This is just that section of training where I don't feel 100% or blythe. Mentally I did very well at staying engaged throughout the entire workout. steady rain for the whole run. It was pleasant to have the company, even if it did weigh down my shoes a bit. I just wear trainers for these runs.... a little heavy in the rain! Still I'll take that over snow, cold, or intense heat!

It has occured to me that I know longer know effort is what anymore. My training keeps evolving and my senses are having a hard time keeping up. Like sunday, I had intended on running "easy", due to generally feeling over stretched, So when I got home 8 minutes earlier than scheduled I freaked out and thought I hadn't run far enough... nope. So I say moderate... but I'm not sure if it was or not. My perceptions are skewed right now. I should race or something to find out.
