Today's tempo run was a dud, bomb, bust, flop, lemon, debacle, flub, bummer, failure, fiasco, disaster, tragedy, calamity, catastrophe, train wreck, cataclysm... Well maybe it wasn't all that but it was poor. My head wasn't in it. I had no strength and no turn over. I started slow, finished slower, and dogged every mile in between. I am not sure why I couldn't move. I really can think of no good reason for it. I am sure glad it wasn't race day. Ave pace- 7:48, about 40 seconds slower than it should have been. Every split was my slowest of this training cycle. I don't think I'll even record them. On the bright side, this run is done and now behind me, thankfully! |
