okay can we say sinus infection? as if the yellow snot didn't give it away 5 days ago. Today I saw it affect my hard day pretty drastically and I took a 2.5 hour nap... I never do that. Hopefully soon my energy will return. My legs felt spriny today it was just an energy issue. here were my splits. Despite running slow, I felt like a rebel running this workout outside! Whoo hoo treadmil you won't domintate me today!
6:33 (WARMUP) 6:02 6:11 5:53 6:13 6:22 1:34 (.25 Decided I was done. very tired. The last mile took everything out of me. I decided I'd cooldown at a moderate/steady state pace... the result is funny) 7:03 COOLDOWN 2:47 for .43 (6:28 pace)
It was supposed to be a workout where I switched from 10k effort and half marathon effort for 6 miles. I did the effort thing... it sure didn't show (unless you were watching ;) Also my butt bothered me a little. This was a loop and every second mile had some rolling hills. NOT cool, since that was to be my harder effort!
Did strides after (that's how I got 8 miles out of today. It was probably more like 8.3 but who cares). I was glad to be outside, and miles 2-4 felt okay, Just running on red.
