Ran 4 at noon. I'm not sure how hot it was but the sun was definitely out. I run in the dark and the sun intimidates me. I started out with a relaxed warm up mile planning on taking it easy for the next three as well. So there I am shuffling along on mile 2 wallowing in self pity because the "hot" sun and noticed that I was barely breathing. That didn't come out right. I was running at such a wimpy speed that breath was barely more than a walk. So I picked up the pace. It wasn't very fast because my legs haven't run 14 miles in 3 days for a while and they were a little tired but it was more effort. I still almost wimped out a few times, tempted to just shuffle along but I kept it up. I found a guy to chase down as well and that helped. Well, I put a crack in the "wimpy afraid of the sun" barrier and I'm pleased about it. (and a little embarrassed that I'm pleased about being a wimp) Avg 8:43 |
