Cap city 5k today, hit the first mile in around 5:28 then completely dropped off the face of the earth. my body gave up on me and the last 3k was slower than 6:00 pace, finished somewhere around 18:40 or something for the 5k, but at that point I was jogging it in just to finish and was no longer trying to run fast. Not a good day, but this is my body saying its time to take a week off and reload, I shoulda listened sooner and done it sooner, but you live and learn. Taking 6-8 days completely off, then gonna do another cycle. This cycle has been great, lots of PRs, just kinda fizzled out on tired legs. |
