Man, was I slow today. Progression run on Saturday and just under 16 yesterday, the two together kinda took the pop out of me for a day. I did a lowly 2 miles at a 12ish pace this morning (I never concern myself with recovery pace, I just saunter along at whatever feels good no matter how slow) then added 4 at lunchtime at a more normal easy pace of 9 but just didn't feel very energetic.
Yesterday I popped downtown to watch the runners at the Sporting Life 10k, catching most of the 12,000+ as they rounded the bend at Yonge and Richmond. I was then thinking I should have joined them, the RDs added 800 spots at the last minute at a reduced rate (sans T-shirt) if you just wanted to run without the goodies.
I've got 6 days to the Mississauga half, toying with how to spend the week. I did 62 last week, I think I'll just cut volume the last 2 days prior and go with that. Weather at this point shows cloudy and chance of a shower, temps okay. It's been a while since I've raced a half, still not feeling like I've regained my levels back from a docile winter.
