I had a running event scheduled for today. It is the Bessie Runners' anniversary celebrations and they had organized a fun little run where you predict your finishing time at the start and run without any gadgets or timers. Had signed up for the run earlier in the week and had predicted a finishing time of 34:50 for 5K. Didn't run yesterday thinking I would have this run today.
Come this morning, I slept through my alarm and suddenly woke up around the time when I should have been lining up at the start line. :-( Felt pretty awful. Since I had all my running gear set out from last night for this morning I decided to run a 4.5k along my usual route in hope that I would feel a little better. It was late already (6:45) when I started. It was hot and humid and I felt exhausted by the time I hit 1.5k. The general lack of sleep that I've been putting myself through the whole of last week thanks to work also didn't help with the exhaustion. Decided to call it quits and head home.
Hopefully next week is better.
Bummer!
