Where's The Easy: A Rough Training Week
I had three runs scheduled this week - 3 miles Easy Continuous, 2 intervals Daniels T pace (10 mins @ T + 2mins RI) iwth 0.5 mi WU + CD, and 5 miles at Easy/Long Run.
All three runs were faster than they were supposed to be. The Daniels T pace I was just pushing too hard, which I think is just me not yet knowing where the right pace is.
The easy runs, though ... I know exactly what the problem was. Neither run felt easy. And while I knew they were supposed to be easy and I tried to self-correct, I couldn't do it. I couldn't find that easy pace groove. I kept trying, and it just wasn't there. Ugh.
It's tough. Last training plan I really grew to appreciate and enjoy the easy runs. It's frustrating to feel like I no longer know what that easy pace is.
I'm off until Tuesday, so I'm just going to try to relax and not worry about it. Tuesday is scheduled as 3 miles at Easy/LR, so hopefully that will help me figure out if this was just an off week or if I need to start working harder to find my easy pace again.
