I know I can, I know I can! by batesey23

I think my mind started to object to going out for a run as soon as I woke up this morning! Do you ever get that? I know I only have certain days and times when I am child and obligation free and I can get out for a run, so I have to go whether I am up for it or not, and today was a not.

My training schedule today was a 16min run, 60second recovery walk and then another 13min run. It usually takes a few minutes for me to find a comfortable running and breathing pace but I didn't seem to find one at all today. 16mins seemed like a long time and I was grateful that it was over. I started out again after the rest but it was no good, I just didn't have it in me today, I stopped for an unscheduled walk break and started off again only to stop after another minute or so and give up and go home!

I'm not sure if it was the mind or the body was unwilling but I didn't fancy forcing the issue, I will go out again tomorrow or Saturday and make up for it!

Total distance today 2.56miles, 8'58 pace - so still not bad to say that I was not up for it at all.

I'll chalk that one down to experience I think!

Quote for today, seen in the dry cleaners:

I can only please one person per day, today is not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look good either.
