Met up with Andy on Legacy Parkway Trail. I wasn't feeling it this morning. I felt cardio wise out of shape and I had a hard time breathing. Must have been from traveling and the change in altitude from California? Not sure. I felt very flabby too. This was no shocker. My diet has fallen off the bandwagon as I haven't been racing this year. Time to get it together again, whether I race or not. I also want to focus on more cross training with core, Hiit and Pilates. It will be hard to incorporate these on a regular basis, aside from running so I'll start really small.
I've really enjoyed my hiatus and it was just what I needed. However, I need some accountablitly or I might get in trouble. Some things just need to be said out loud.
8 miles 7:20 AP- 8:11, 7:57, 7:49, 7:35, 7:06, 6:54, 6:55, 6:19. Felt better after turning around at half way, but last mile felt like a push and my HR reflected that at 96%/max. Go Tara.
