AM - 15.25 Tempo. Bummer workout. Just kind of a perfect storm of crappiness today. I actually started off feeling pretty good, but then it all added up. The humidity was way high - no good. Ran a lot of mileage last week - no good. Hard mileage/long run Saturday - no good. Been starting to get sick - no good. Ran harder than I should have yesterday - no good. So after The Circle had long since left me I was still trying to plug along, but slowing. 5:50 at Nicholl's. 5:55 at the bride. As I came to the end of Mosquito, I heard the guys talking. They had called the workout and were waiting for me. I tried to keep going, but the body and mind were very week and I called it just after Mosquito where I had dropped over 6:00. Really struggled even just jogging it in. Glad it is over and I need a nap. I need to really make myself understand what my focus needs to be. I can't do mileage and pace work at the same time (especially during the school year). So I need to let the mileage go and just get my workouts in where they are supposed to be. I am going to let the rest of the week be pretty chill and get feeling better for next week's rebooting. (Mana 638.75)
