Sometimes it does get a little discouraging when the quest for faster times seem to stall. On Saturday morning we will be doing the Black Eagle Dam 5k...so this morning I went out and did a 'warm-up' run on the course.
Since I don't know the exact start and stop points, I can't be totally accurate but timed myself at 28:47. If you do the math, that's not going to do the trick in turning sub 8 min. miles.
Hence a bit of disappointment. This was only a training run and I will run a little faster on Saturday, I'm sure.......but I'm struggling to attain a goal that I feel I should have already reached.
We'll talk more about realistic expectations in a future post. While it may not be realistic....I think I should be there by now!
Was still a great workout. I did get in about 4 miles on the bike earlier this morning as well.... but didn't hit the pool this week at all. We'll get there!
