<![CDATA[#running update]]> update.
I ran Kenilworth half marathon on Sunday and it didn’t go well. 1:36 is my slowest HM time this year and slowest since 2021. I’m chasing a sub 19 5K goal and recent results are not encouraging… I went to track last night still a bit disappointed but I actually felt good! Had a fun/masochistic session under the floodlights.

A reminder not to dwell on the negatives.

Always.

We're always too hard on ourselves 😅

Well done!

And yes, I actually just saw a video from distancerunning.dk specifically mentioning that you might have an off day or just feel a bit less performant on the days you do your tests of hardest training sessions.

It's a balance and some days you just don't feel quite as good as others
