Took a lot of effort to get out of bed today when the alarm went off at 4:30. But I did manage to get out the door and on the roads - albeit rather late at 6:00 am.
Today's run felt like a lot of effort - probably because I was tired and there wasn't enough zzzs in the tank. Being later in the morning, the temperature was higher (not uncomfortably so) and I had swapped my pre-run banana snack for a couple of dates both of which probably contributed to the general feeling of sluggishness.
But despite all that I managed to push on through at an average pace of 6'51" which is 2 seconds faster than last week and put me at 50 meters further than last week. It is miniscule progress but small & steady progress is any day better than fluctuating progress or worse no progress at all so I'll take it! :-)
I'm pretty pleased that I have been sticking to my workout schedule quite consistently. As predicted there has been a few tweaks here and there but I am very kicked to see the number of green ticks! :-)
