Road run 29:18 [5] 3.9 mi (7:31 / mi)
Well, it was our last day in Florida, and I figured it was time to make one more assault on my PR. I felt my preparation was impeccable. I rested yesterday, set my alarm to get out before the sun was high, stretched carefully and timed my start to miss the bridge openings. And I felt really fast as I set out,.... only I wasn't. Despite my musings about arriving at the bridge in under 11:00, my time was 11:35, almost 15 seconds slower than my performance on Sunday. And it didn't get any better. I kept a steady pace, but my running was consistently 15+ sec/mile slower than my earlier performance. Perhaps some days are just like that, or perhaps I am realizing the effects of a full week of unrestrained eating. In either case, it was not the transcendent result that I was hoping for.
