Another 25 minute run. This is technically the last day of w7. Now I am faced between two technically unpleasant choices: I can do my traditional fourth day for w7, or I can push forward into w8 and 28 minutes. I should probably do a fourth day… it’s only 3 more minutes but I am beat at the end of 25– like seriously, ok-scrape-me-off-the-trail-now beat. Maybe I’ll cobble together something fun for my fourth day of w7, do some fartlek or something and take an extra day for recovery. (Plus fartlek is such a great word.)
The only thing I wish is that I was faster. I’m running for longer, but I’m not covering that much more ground! I know I’m adjusting my pace so I don’t get Type A tired too fast, but 25 minutes to cover 2 miles seems so slow.
I think I need to go back and read my posts again about when I was excited to make my 5 minute intervals and remind myself how far I’ve come…
