Heavy legs

without comments

Today’s evening run was hard.

I fell short of my distance goal. Okay maybe I was being too ambitious. But after 3 easy days in a row, I wanted to do a long one today. Body wasn’t ready. Legs were tired and heavy. Did get in a good distance, but I wasn’t feeling well.

Today was a trial of the mind.

The condition wasn’t the best. It rained hard in the afternoon. The track was wet and muddy. The weather was quite gloomy. The sky was dark and it rained a little. Didn’t want to get a cold so I wore my rain jacket. It made me feel like being in a sauna.

Anyway, I felt like I should be fresher than I was. Maybe I have to rethink a bit about the “taking no rest days” approach.
