Notes
This was the exact opposite of yesterday. Yesterday I felt lively and like I could handle any pace for any distance. I was holding myself back early on. Today I wanted to stop and walk the entire time.
Back in college there were morning run days where you were at the front of the pack and having a grand ol' time the whole run. Then there were days when the incredibly slow pace still felt too fast and all you did the whole run was wait for it to be over. Today was one of those latter days. I guess that's what happens when the seven days preceding today added up to 75mi.
Hoping that two easy days in a row will help me get in a solid effort on Saturday in the DuPage Pads 10k. Good chance I'll be on my own for it, but at least it will be a race-ish (not racist) environment and will hopefully help my performance at the Fox Valley 1/2marathon.
