Noon: Went out late today. I wanted to do a workout of 7x200, 3x5k with 3:00 jog recoveries in 17:50 per 5k, but I just didn't have it and bailed before the final two 5ks.
Splits 0:40, 0:38, 0:36, 0:32, 0:32, 0:32, 0:29; 17:55, ----, ----
It was definitely 90% mental and 10% physical although I tried to convince myself otherwise. It's amazing to me- one day you can run a 5k and have it feel easy and like you're floating, and then the next day feel awful. How I was able to run the 15k and follow it up the next day with a 1:13 half marathon in February, yet today I can't even muster a 17:50 5k a day after breezing through a short 5k is just so odd.
