Sunday 19/12/2004

I thought today I would be able to put in a much better effort. When the alarm went off at 4:15 this morning I was dead to the world. I found it difficult to get moving. My friends were waiting for me at Park Road at 5:00 AM. I left them at about 16K so that I could pick up my pace and do a bit extra distance. My program called for a 2 hr run. I quit at 1:54 after only 22.5K. For some reason I was finding th going a bit tough today. Tomorrow is a rest day so hopefully by Tuesday's speed session I will be feeling better.

Don't worry too much Eddie, we all have days where we don't feel quite right. As you said, you didn't feel that great when the alarm went off and it probably just snowballed from there. Just be happy with your 22.5km in under 2 hours which is still a good training run. Rest up and give that speed session on Tuesday a thrashing and you will feel better for it.

Should be an interesting session tomorrow Eddie, hope you have time to stay for the Chrissy breakfast afterwards.
Might just be enticing enough to push a bit harder tomorrow, though 15min of sprints is not my idea of fun.
