First 10k of the year was this morning and it was rough. My legs felt like they were full of cement and my ass had a piano tied to it. I didn't even turn my watch on so have a general idea of time but that is it. There were lots of walk breaks and the km between 4-5k was the longest km ever!
BUT
The snowflakes were drifting around me in a freakish spring snow storm. It was beautiful. I kept on running just in shorter amounts and really it was a good morning!
Now to rethink how to approach the end of May 10k.
Things to work on:
Nutrition-I have not been eating well and it shows.
Definitely do not eat sushi the day before! It was so yummy but soya sauce blows me up like a balloon.
Endurance, I can run the distance no problem but not at the pace I want to. I need to work on running faster more consistently.
At the end of the day it was a good race with a good friend and that is why I do this running thing. It's really about the friendships not the numbers!
