Not awful but not great either. Motivation was definitely lacking this morning after the long weekend and with it being colder, windy, and wet outside. And got an email yesterday from Danielle at CIM that it'll likely be canceled in the next 2 weeks, so that didn't help either.
Strapped on the vaporflies just for a little extra boost since I felt like I might need it, and with the wet concrete I didn't want to wear the Endorphin Speeds since they haven't had the best traction on wet pavement in the past. The 10:00 and 8:00 portions didn't feel awful, I just didn't really feel like pushing it too hard on the longer hard segments with how I was feeling this morning. Pushed it a bit on the 6:00 and it felt pretty good. The 4:00 my watch was saying 5:00 pace up until I had to make the sharp turn at the Grand Ave underpass on the bike trail, I'm pretty sure the turn threw off my watch because I think I ran faster than 5:06 pace for that segment. Then the 2 minute one I just sprinted and was right at 15:00 5k pace, which aint great but whatever.
Not my best workout at all this morning but glad to get it done
