I’ll admit it, I procrastinated a bit tonight. Well it was raining. And dark. And did I mention it was raining? But for once, by faffing around (at least 30 minutes to put my socks on) actually paid off, not only did it stop raining, but I also got to see Mini-Ginge do a new trick. I would have been very miffed to have missed that.
Tonight was the opposite of Saturday’s run, not just in terms of direction but also in terms of general -ness. On Saturday, I felt gooood. The run felt easy, I felt strong and comfortable. It was only when I checked my watch at the halfway point that I realised that it was easy and comfortable because I was going quite slowly. Arse. Tonight, it felt more effortful and hard work. Guess what? It turns out that I ran my fastest 3 miles since having Mini-Ginge and managed to take nearly 30 seconds/mile off my pace.
So tonight I have learned the lesson that running faster feels harder work. Who’d have thought eh?
Wow 30s per mile off! Good going!
I had this too with my run last night. It was shorter than my weekend run which I got a bit grumpy about, but it turns out my kms were 1 min quicker! Felt hard, but looking back the accidental pushing might have been worth it!
Well done on tbe speedy run. Procrastination rocks!
Lol!
Getting to see new tricks is worth all the procrastination 😉 I knew you’d get your head down and on it for Janathon, keep at it!
