Failed workout. I had 4 x 3200m on the schedule, but I wasn't feeling great on the warmup. Shortened it to 3 x 3200m. On the first 1600 I only managed 5:36. I stopped, jogged a lap to try to reset and started again. 5:23. Not so bad. Let's try another. 5:26 fading badly over the final lap. I pulled the plug at that point. There is a time and place for pushing through tired legs, but I don't feel that 2 weeks before the goal race is that time.
Failed workouts never feel great, but I know myself well enough by now that I can shake this off and rest up.
PM -- Skipped the afternoon run in favor of a nap.
