So after my work out today I feel like climbing in a hole and crying!!!! I am so ashamed and humiliated with my performance today. I met up with Michelle, Sasha, MaryAnn and Daniel for a speed work out. The plan was to run 3 5k's in 19:00 min or less. We ran out to the course from Sasha's which was about 2.6 miles. We started the first 5k and everything was feeling really good until 2.6 and then my stomach really acted up on me. I tried running through it, but there was no way that I could hold the pace. I finished the first 5k in 19:08 :( I started the second 5k but by mile 1 I knew that I was in trouble again so I turned around and ran back to the start, ave pace 6:35 for 2 miles, I turned around and ran back to cheer Michelle on and then ran with her and Sasha until they started their 3rd 5k and then I ran out to mile 1 and then turned around again and ran back to the start, ave pace 7:35 for 2 miles. Michelle finished the last 5k in 18:43 and the second was 18:48? I think. She did a great job today, I am very envious of her performance today. I really slacked off the last 2 weeks, so I really need to get back on the running wagon or I will crash come January 17th at Painters. I would like to try this work out again and try and redeem myself. |
