| 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.

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.

| AM: 10.3 miles, ~2 miles hard effort, including a 2:22 800m running with Javier. Geez that dude is fast- and I don't think he runs many miles at all. No split times other than that one, I don't usually focus on anything over than effort on Tuesday morning track.
PM: 8.1 miles on some hills back and forth, with a 5 mile tempo in the middle. This was my first tempo in forever, but I felt controlled and wasn't breathing too hard. The rest of the guys were doing intervals style, so I just would keep going and then catch them on the return. It was pretty fun to time it, and definitely made the time pass much easier.
Split- (5 miles consecutive after two miles easy) 29:47

| AM: Went to Clermont hoping to get the course record in the Clermont Parkrun 5k. Did a TON of striders, trying to prime my super sore legs. That helped a bit, but I still felt achey at the beginning. I was aiming for a 15:29 flat.
Then the race just happened- and it was over in the blink of an eye. I missed the record by 5 seconds. It was definitely mental, I know I am faster than that. I just lost control, did not relax, and didn't use the watch to my advantage. I felt my blood boiling a bit when I finished, since I knew I wasn't tired enough to have had just given a fully effort. Final time was a 15:44.
5k Splits- 4:59, 4:59, 5:13, Finish 0:33
