| After a 20 day hiatus from running, I have started a new regimen with the intent to run the blue course on 30 March - the first o-meet of the year for me. I haven't planned well.
I was much more fatigued than I expected, and apparently, I've lost my pacing calibrations. I thought I was running a 9 minute mile pace (5:30 km). This might account for my weakness.
Unsurprisingly, everything felt terrible today - my breathing, my muscles, and my endurance were all more pained and weak than any run in recent memory. Seven days to go!
