What a difference a day of cross training made.  My legs felt fresh again today.  It was also an amazingly beautiful morning.  Who wouldn't want to go out for a run on a day like today?

6 mile warm up at recovery pace

5 K in 21:07 (what a disappointment)

6 mile cool down at recovery pace

Total run 15.1 miles AP 8:02

I ran the 5 k as fast as I could and was disappointed in my effort.  This list is for me so I can try to keep up my confidence that I can BQ UVM.

 1. I am just finishing my first 50 + mile week since the beginning of January

 2.  I ran 6 miles before doing the 5K

 3.  I have lost 10 lbs in the last 2 weeks so probably wasn't carbed up well

4.  I usually can peak quickly and still have 3 more weeks before I need to start my taper.

5. My track speed work has not been too bad the last couple weeks.

 6. I was wearing my heavy shoes and a fuel belt which probably cost me some time.

 7. It was hot!
