this was suppose to be a 40 minute tempo run. I started out on a "warm up", but hoping to run it faster that what I had been running. Wasn't going to look at my watch, just go with what felt good. I felt like I was running smooth, fast and strong. Came to the hill and told myself. Run light and smooth up the hill....Oh, I was doing great. I could see the 1 mile mark. Very excited to see my time.....STINK 9:46. I hate that when you feel you are running faster than you really are.
Anyway, the next two miles were 9:03 and a 9:06 and then I was done. I was very, very tired. Had to walk run the last mile and half. When I did run, I would try and run as fast as I could and then take a few second walk break. This is so frustrating having to start all over!!!! |
