Unexpected 5k

Last 5k Time Trial Recap HERE

I decided against a tempo run today and instead to run by feel. It turned into an unexpected 5k. I was going to try for either two semi quick miles or four really really slow miles. All depending on how I felt when I started. 

Last night was another rough night of sleep for our sick kids. Running on about two hours of broken sleep and minimal water, I didn’t expect this run to go well. 

I decided I would run the first mile by feel, not look at my watch. I ended up running faster than expected and felt great. I did the whole run by feel. I made two stops at the cross walks, other than that I felt great at the paces I was running. It never felt like was pushing too hard and wanted to stop. Honestly it felt like I could have continued longer. 

LOVE when training starts clicking. I am excited about the future and proud of myself. 

Now for a long run tomorrow. That I need to make sure I run extra easy!
