5k is a long way! (No, that's not me, but it is certainly how I feel.)
The title of this blog has never been more appropriate.
I really thought I was going to collapse tonight. But, despite having an almost overwhelming desire to stop at least 32 times (and that was only after the 40% point) - I went ahead and did a whole 5k again - and I did it in 29:24 (four seconds short of my record, but 36 seconds better than my goal).
Oh, and I finally figured out what the "runner's high" is - it's what I *was* back on Thanksgiving Day last year when I said "I'm going to do this again next year!" and "I'll do it in under 30 minutes!"
I had a tough week last week (in terms of not doing a good job of getting to the gym). So, tonight was doubly hard. I am exhausted.
Tonight I picked a selection of songs that had been good for running previously (I didn't want to do any experimenting and end up with a situation like this again).
Thanksgiving cannot come soon enough!!
