MUCH BETTER. I would have thought last night didn't happen. Hit the ground feeling bouncy and light. Four miles at roughly a steady state pace, flirting with tempo pace at the end. Not a hint of fatigue in the legs. I finished feeling like "that's it?" I'm going to try to run a few more tonight. And I may, as Tim M. suggested, try my track workout later in the week. Obviously the heat was the main problem last night. 7:40, 7:14, 7:12, 7:05
Nice run Aric. Suck-it Monday.

Nice progression. You still got a decent amount of quality work in this week. I would bag redoing the track workout and just continue next week.

We'll see. Today's run is just barely touching tempo pace (if that), and fairly short so I should have lots of juice left if I want to try something on maybe Thursday. I'm still really early in the cycle so a few botched hard workouts are not a big problem, I think.

I am like you and hate to miss sessions. Just remember that the training cycle is long and it wasn't like you missed the workout altogether. You still got 2/3 of it done. But I know how you feel and sometimes redemption is what is needed.

Good news! Funny how you can feel so rotten and then so good.

Nice!

Yes, Lynn. The only explanation that I have is that the heat caused me to run at far below my actual ability and thus I didn't actually get a real workout last night. Which I think is pretty likely. I've still got a ton of energy today but I've unfortunately missed my window for a double.
