Notes
This run sucked. It sucked bad. I can hardly bring myself to call it a tempo, but the perceived effort was hard...really hard. I didn't even make it back to the Y. I had to stop and walk for a few minutes before I jogged it in. I guess maybe it was the heat, but it just didn't feel right after the first mile. I started too hard, I know that much. Not much of a warmup, especially going up that giant hill on Maryland Way. But after the second mile split, I knew it was going to be tough. I was already breathing hard. Pretty frustrating. I feel like I am fitter than this, but then again I haven't been consistent with my training.
I know I need to find a way to start sneaking in some long runs. I also need to get a bit more organized with my plans. Every day I just kind of decide when I step out the door what I'm going to do. Sometimes that even changes once I start moving.
