I ran with the race team today, and it was a great run! Mostly anyways. i knew i might b in trouble cause i hadn't ate lunch until 2 and we left at 5. But it was great push, and running with them made the middle paces feel a little easier.
Well i was going to treat this run like a tempo run, though it was just a recovery run for everyone else:)We gradually sped up, and by mile 4 or 5 we were running in the high 6 s. they started bringing it in at mile 6, and i tried to stay with them. i felt really free and solid that mile (6:08) but then my stomach officially sta having problems, and i couldn't push through it (or find a bathroom). i slowed to 6:26, and then 6:28 for last 2.5 miles. so slower than i wanted it to be that day, but it was great to have the company and people to push me.
I had to train someone and then head to teach zumba after that - i was wiped out. my tummy was still hurting and i had zero energy! a lot of faking it. |
