I went on my 45 minute run today which is just over 4.5 miles at the pace I am going. I just didn't seem to have the energy today to do the run. The 4th mile was just a struggle and for the last 3/4 of a mile I just abandoned the 2:30/1:00 ratio and ran and stopped when I felt like it which just meant shorter run and walk segments.
When I sat down and looked at what I did, it was actually about the same time as I did this route last week, so despite not feeling "fast" today I seem to be maintaining.
Then I happened to notice that I just set a new 5k PR! What the heck?
So apparently I am a terrible judge of how fast I am and how well I do.
