The biggest change I have made
Is the one where I stop second guessing myself. I used to over think my options and my inner monolouge would negotiate the pros and cons. By the time a decision was reached I was disinterested. Now, I am in total control and I just do things and skip the whole discussion process. Today was a perfect example of that where I came home, got changed and went running. I didn't think about the weather, how I felt, how much time I had, the things I had to do, my dishes, my laundry, on and on. By the time I had those considerations I was at km 8 and I had more interesting things to consider. My pacing today was faster than yesterday as I was mostly pain free today. It really makes a difference with my stride. I was on a 5 minute pace for the first 9k then backed off a bit for the rest. The wind today was harsh, cold and swirling. There were some very good moments today out there, I was very pleased with my ability to just keep going. 1:47:46 ~ 21.1 km, 5:06 per km.
