Your last run is not always your best
Man did I prove this theory on the weekend went out for my run on Sunday first run of the new program and I was really looking forward to a good long hard run had left a bit down the whole weekend and was looking like improving my 10K PB. Unfortunately it was just not meant to be I headed out at 2:30 and there was a lot of wind and rain around but spirits were high. About 2K in I new something was wrong had done it in over 17 minutes and was way behind my normal time felt really hot and dry even though it was raining only realised after another K or so that I hadn’t drunk anything all day felt like a right idiot after that realised I was really dehydrated and things weren’t looking good as I was starting to get really light headed. Decided to cut it short and pulled up at my parent’s house 5.41 K later in at 44:38 but feeling really stupid and very tired. But all in all a good lesion to listen to your body and if it tells you something is wrong LISTEN. Felt better after I drank about 2 litres of water over about an hour so all in all pretty dumb but not the end of the world. Looking forward to my next run on Tuesday as I am starting my exciting speed work program and it looks exciting.
