So it's easy to see that I struggled more with this run, than with Monday nights. My heart rate is higher, the pace is slower and this was a mile shorter than Monday. I pretty much expected this though after all the time I've taken off. My body is recovering much more slowly after each run, and I'm feeling it. On top of all this, I put myself at a disadvantage by not eating or drinking anything since breakfast at 0700. I threw back a gel on the way out for my run in a desperate attempt to replenish my energy stores. This obviously didn't work as well as I'd hoped.

Relay for Life is Friday so if I don't run tomorrow, I probably won't until Sunday. This is assuming that I survive all the chaos that will ensue once the relay starts.
