Time: 39:04
Pace: 9:45 min/mi
Comments: I should have expected this. I had that extraordinarily strong run of workouts last week and was ready to build on it and then... splat. I couldn't get up Sunday to run; ended up sleeping 10+ hours and then was a zombie all day.
I had a tough time getting up today and felt like I was starting over completely when I got started with the run. I dialed back the goal to just holding the pace under 10 min/mi and was able to meet that mark.
The heat and humidity have something to do with it but I think I need to be a lot better with refueling when I make hard efforts.
