I fell off training. It wasn’t pretty. I overwhelmed myself. Coming back from vacation, I was supposed to do a 15-miler. Instead, I rebelled. Granted, I had some other things in my schedule taking up my time, but I wasn’t running 8-milers or even 10Ks. I was doing squat. Today, I got back out.
It was raining. Not really drizzling, raining. The temperature was a nice 66 degrees despite what translated to 93% humidity, or maybe 100%. It was cloudy, but it was cool. Cool meant good running. Cool made me happy. Heck, rain made me happy.
I ended up with a somewhat decent time for my 6.31 miles: 45:58. I did 7:17s. At this time last year I was doing 6:53s … over 8.273 miles. So I’m behind. Which focuses me. I’ve had a lot of stuff going on, and my mind has been scattered. But I made some weekend progress and it looks as if I might be able to get focused. No, I gotta. If I wanna meet my goals, I gotta focus and focus hard. Look at every minute and see what I can do toward my goals.
Here are the deets from this morning’s run:
My heart got a pretty good workout today. It feels behind. I wanna take ArginMax again to see if it might help my blood pumping. We’ll see. Other than that, nothing much to report. Help me.
