12 miles - 5 at tempo

I am not too stoked about this morning’s run. I learned last year that every so often there are going to be bad days. You cannot have a perfect day everyday! Today was one of those days. It was raining pretty heavily still when I woke up so I text Adam and decided it was best to hit the treadmill. That was the mistake of the morning.

I should have just battled the rain. I have only run a few times on the treadmill this year and I don’t plan to again any time soon. I feel like it is more difficult for me to run on a treadmill. Does anyone else feel that way? I overheat. I sweat until I am drenched. I just don’t feel good!

So, I had planned on doing an 8 mile tempo, but after 3 miles I knew today was not my day. I eked out nearly 5 miles before I called it and slowed up the pace. I knew I had to finish the workout so I continued to the end of mile 12.
