The first half was faster, I slowed in the second half. Probably a combination of the late start (9am) and the fact that I didn't fuel during the run. I ate enough beforehand, and never really got to the point of OMG I Need To Eat so I didn't!
Gorgeous day, finally shorts and a t-shirt weather. And the t-shirt didn't last, it came off near the end :)
I took off with no specific route in mind, just went. Around mile 5 when I was in The Hill I decided to route such that I did no repeats or out-n-back sections. Sometimes in a run in town I get so wrapped up in the mileage numbers that I lose sight of the fact that I can just wander all morning. I keep thinking about known positions I can run to that are x number of miles away that I can use as markers for mileages. This time I convinced myself to just run a loop, weave a bit, go somewhere new, and let go of the numbers-numbers-numbers.
This run felt great, it was fun to see 6 miles come and go at just over 50 mins, and realize that years ago I did races at this pace! My goal was an easy pace, nothing hard or pushed, and just get the time in.
I was going to swim my bonus swim, but decided instead to stick around the house and work on my to-do list. Unfortunately, I got stressed about things and and The Monsters came out. I need to kill those f'ers.
So I keep conjuring, sometimes I wonder where these thoughts spawn from(Yeah, pondering'll do you wonders.No wonder you're losing your mind the way it wanders.)---'Cause I need an interventionistTo intervene between me and this monsterAnd save me from myself and all this conflict'Cause the very thing that I love's killing me and I can't conquer it
