Did I run as fast as I had planned?
No.
Did I run as far as I had planned?
No.
Did I do intervals as planned?
No.
So, why was today a success?
Because I got out and ran.
Once I realized it was 75 degrees and 100% humidity, I knew it wouldn't be an optimal run. I was running slowly. Thanks to the humidity, sweating wasn't very useful. The occasional light breeze was very welcomed, but occasional wasn't often enough. After a mile, I took a short walk break. Then, at about 2 miles, my foot started hurting, so I walked the rest of the way, stretching it every few minutes. It feels like a plantar faciitis type of feeling, so I didn't want to make it worse. It seems to be better now, but I'll stretch today to make sure. Soon after I got home, it started pouring. Maybe I should take up swimming instead!
I didn't count bunnies, thinking that I would actually use the lap button for intervals, even though I didn't. There were a crazy number of bunnies out, though. I also saw a toad on the sidewalk, and the birds were singing their beautiful tunes!
