Notes
Was a really odd and somewhat discouraging run. First 4 miles were in about 8:20-30 range - average. The next 6 miles were 8:50 to 9:00. Just a little slower than I expected. I know I need to start doing my long runs easier, but this was just about 10 seconds per mile too easy. The frustrating part is that I felt like I was running harder. At that pace it should have felt easy. Just not sure what was going on. I did an 8 mile run earlier in the month and average around 8:15 per mile Just maybe need to write it off as an off day. Just scared as I've been getting worse and worse it seems as the months go by. I just hope this isn't a trend of where I'm heading and will probably stay (and even get worse). I'm trying a little more, but still feel like I'm getting nowhere. I understand it's going to take time but I'm just getting frustrated. Knee wasn't too bad. Achilles was tight but seemed to let me run. Not sure if these little injuries are slowing me down some. Might be the case. Just a lot has been going on so I need to regroup and refocus.
