Comments Easy warm-up. Beautiful day for a race. Too much work this week and not enough rest. Got into Richmond last night around midnight.
Warm-up for 3 miles with some of the old crew. Not surprised with my slow time based on how this week went for me. Jumped the gun to a 5:05 first mile by mistake, not a smart move but it was hard not to get sucked in. gradually slowed to hit 5K in 16:30 which was my goal, but just didn't have it in the lungs today for some reason. After 4 miles I gave up and jogged it in. Just wasn't mentally there to want to suffer today, knowing that a sub 33 wasnt in the bag. Cruised in and enjoyed the tempo run, finished with a grand kick in the last .2 to pick off a handful of runners. Ashamed that I couldn't even run half marathon pace today. Need to find a way to get some rest and access my inner Rocky montage again before I can start running fast. Soon enough it will happen Im sure.
