Notes

6:25am. Overall, a blah kind of run. Felt like I had no energy. Legs were stiff and heavy. Felt like I had to pee. I did a lot of mental whining the 1st 3 miles. And then I told myself, "There is NOTHING wrong with you." So I slogged on but still wanted to whimper to every person I passed, "I'm dying." At some point 2 voices started having conversation in my head. Turned out to be my feet chatting to each other. Left foot was boasting to right foot that it could do five miles at least. Decided that I really wanted to be able to say I did 10k today so I forced myself even though it wasn't enjoyable at all. Felt hot, mid 70s and humid (although not as humid as past days). Full on sun felt a bit brutal. Thank goodness I was wearing a hat. Brought some Nuun water; I suppose that helped. After the run I felt quite proud of myself and happy since it's been almost a month since the last time I ran 6 miles.
