To be honest, the 6.4km tempo on the treadmill today felt awful. Perhaps it was a little unwise of me to decide to proceed with this run despite having barely recovered from a flu. Precipitating matters was a rather unpleasant feeling after a late and heavy lunch (cream pasta).
Though I did complete the run in under 27mins, it was certainly an unpleasant, forced run. This contrasts with a faster 7km tempo nearly a month ago that felt relatively effortless. This workout may have been unpleasant, but my consolation is that it's a joy to run, with whatever God-given ability I possess and have cultivated.
All I can do is hope for the best as I seek to recover in time and run a controlled but confident race this Sunday, at the 10km POSB Run for Kids 2014 race.
