10k , 1st rough one

[OlderThanDirt]

Evening all.

Managed to squeeze my 10k in today, it didn’t go as well as my first one 🤣

About 4K in an urgent message from my legs was sent to my brain informing me they weren’t happy , they’d had a meeting, held a vote and had unanimously agreed it wasn’t happening today and they were no longer taking part in this ridiculous affair....🤦🏻‍♂️

I managed to drag them against their will around the remaining 6k but wow...it was tough..a.m. now completely focusing on the saying..”it makes you stronger .” 😫🤪😳

Anyway, happy I did it and am hopeful that by morning I can convince my legs to be friends again

Night all

Getting through those tough runs is the best, you did a grand job, well done!

😂😂

Your post made me laugh, not at you but with you, as it wasn't so long ago that my legs were having a similar conversation with my brain and refusing to go on.

Glad you managed to keep going mind over matter. And as you say, it will make you stronger.

Hope the next one's a bit easier.

Oh well, there’s always a next time 🙂

Were you running on empty by any chance?

Oh, well done. I'm hoping to do another 10k soon, before I decide I must have dreamed the first one! My legs and brain have that conversation for the first at least 20 minutes of every run, till my lungs throw out all the dog dander.

My legs and brain have definitely been involved in similar high level board meetings in the past lol.
