A Slower 5@5:30

It was a struggle to get out of bed, but I did it. 5@5:30. It wasn’t as dark this morning as it usually is. I had to take off my arm light bands a mile in – or risk looking like an uber safety-freak. I took my regular hilly route, and I have to say that my body is feeling the past 5 sick days. I was definitely moving slower than expected, so I went at my slower pace and enjoyed the quiet of the morning.

Sidebar: out of all my thoughts this morning, I didn’t think about PV on the 19th! It is only 17 days away. Yesterday I posted that PV was 25 days away – my simple math skills have obviously deteriorated along with my health! So only 17 days…must focus…2:05 is the goal.

Back to this morning: so I enjoyed the simplicity of my morning run. I enjoyed it so much that when I stopped at Starbucks for my well deserved Americano, I forgot to turn off my Forerunner. So my not-so-accurate stats are:

time: 59:48
distance 5.05
ave pace 11:26
best pace 7:34

run happy :)
