Afternoon Run

slightly sick but, body fought it pretty good i think.. nothing major. didn't feel too fast early on during warmups, but then on a few strides before hitting the first 1.4 mi, i started feeling some power..































































































































































































































































my goal was a hard (but relaxed) 1.4 mi @ an average of < 5:40 min/mi pace, surprising success, without looking at my watch at all.. I knew I was moving decent when some little kid on a bike tried to keep up with me and I smoked him, haha. That made me laugh & relax even more.































































































































































































































































Then I finished with one more mile, which I wanted under 5:40 ..































































































































































































































































I love not looking at my watch, it's the best decision i've made with running so far.. It really helps me focus  on what my body wants to give me that day, instead of what I WANT my body to give me, which can be two very different things.. and when they are very different, it can become stressful -> tightening up more, fighting harder, etc..
