Tried this run yesterday - and couldn't get past the 10 minute mark. I was really feeling it in my legs (I had been for a couple of looong walks the day before) and couldn't mentally get through it.
Will be trying again tomorrow, but I'm feeling that I've let myself down a lot. I'm sure at this stage it's at least 80% mental and I can't seem to get my head around these long runs.

Don't use the F word on here you get into trouble. Do you think you were trying to hard after your walks. You are quite correct it is all mental now call it a practice run take another rest day to give yourself the opportunity to refocus go out there with the attitude I can do this and nail it.
