OK week. Missed a couple of runs. Wasn't feeling well for one of them and the other was bad timing. I am seeing a trainer at my club, have some free sessions, and she kicked my ass Thursday. I had to leave work early so I wasn't able to run before the session which I like to do. She kicked my ass so hard I wasn't able to do my run afterwards :-(

Anywhoo... I did a 10k on Saturday that was fun. I had 0 plans to try and do anything other than run as hard as I could for as long as I could and see what happened. There was no pacing plan, just run hard. I didn't get a PR but I was 10 minutes faster than a 10k I did a year ago so not back. Here is how I wrote it up on my blog:

Mile 0 - 1 = What??? That's cray cray! I'll never hold this!
Mile 1 - 2 = Ok, this is good. Hold this plz
Mile 2 - 3 = Um, pace isn't going in the correct direction but still overall I'm cool.
Mile 3 - 4 = Crap. PR is slipping away
Mile 4 - 5 = Ruh roh. Hill.
Mile 5 - 6 = C'mon dammit! Ruuuunnnn!!!!!
Last .2 = I'm given her all she's got, Captain!
