W9R1: How come....?

Last week for W8R2 and R3 I felt spent at the end of the 28 minute run, couldn't wait for Sarah M to tell me that I was done. Last night I still have enough in the tank to pick up the pace for the last minute, and felt I could have gone on for 5 more.

Same happened from week 7 into 8. Wish I knew why.

But hey - hopefully as I go on beyond week 9 (only 2 more runs until I graduate) there'll be more like last night.

Everything in your life can affect your running....... hydration, nutrition, restedness, state of mind, the weather, the season etc. etc.

Analysis of what may have varied can help you arrange your life to maximize the enjoyment of your running.

Keep running, keep smiling.
