I felt like I was pushing hard but no matter what surface I'm on I have a hard time logging 9 min miles as "fast."
Woke up a few minutes to 7am, grabbed my vest (no time to get a drink) and got out the door by 7am. I had exactly 90mins to get a run in, without breakfast, fuel, or really waking up.
I've been a bit sick/congested and all sorts of exhausted.... excessively sleeping. Extra sleep isn't uncommon in my cycles of insomnia, I'll go period of time (days/weeks/months) where I don't sleep more than 4-5 hours a night, then I'll hit a patch of days/weeks where I want 10+ hours. But this exhaustion made me not want to run.... so it was different.
Determined to shake the funk I went to dimple dell (all I had time for). Not sure the funk has shaken but I was glad to get out again and actually have started to plan runs this week that I'm looking forward to.
Oh, and I ran by an overweight jogger who was running in jegging capris and eye of the tiger had just come on my phone (that I was rudely playing on the speakers). She was a super star.
