Today I went for a run and picked up the pace after two weeks of easy running and recovery. Humidity has hovered in the area and made running a little bit difficult the last few days. Team Ultra did speedwork yesterday, so I picked it up and did four – ten minute intervals today. I started out with the guys and then split to do my intervals solo. The first two intervals were hot, third my legs started to feel like lead and my last was running on fumes. I really thought about cutting it short and only completing three, but then reconsidered – because why not finish? How often do we start something and then cut it short because of a made up excuse or because we stay in our comfort zones. I could have easy cut it short and it was justified due to heat, but I stuck with it and I’m just a little bit more confident in myself because I didnt give up.
