Good sleep, even with a nap yesterday. 25km today. First time in a quite a while. Not to mention 20 Saturday and 25 today. Very tired, that is for sure. Legs were a little dead by the end. The last 5 kms has 3 very large hills, up the big bridge that connects Obolon with Podil, Vladymyrsky Spusk and Shevchenko Street.
All in all it was fairly mindful with the foot plant. There was some arising and falling stupidity but it was noticed, it arose and it ceased and there were long periods of just following the foot plant. It was a beautiful morning but a bit windy in some places. Since it was the first time I had run 25k on this route since March of this year (last speed run before Conemarra Ultra) it was interesting to see how the areas had changed.
The only thing that has changed much is that the roads are in a bit worse shape. The leaves have all but fallen all over the place, there are still some remnants, in areas with heavy tree cover there is a yuck filled path of wet leaves that have never been removed. In general, about what Kyiv is like in November.
Still no snow. Good. It will come though, it always does.
After I got home I was tired and hungry. I could really feel the tiredness today, right up until now. Need to stay comfortable with this and embrace in order to move through the week. I wonder...
is there such a thing as comfortably tired?
