I actually came here to post a motivational update... Yesterday as I was approaching the end of my run the legs were tired, the mind was wandering, and I noticed something strange. I was on a recovery interval so letting my legs go at their own pace, thinking about my marathon goal and I realised I was cruising, enjoying it, and going way too fast. Had to force myself to slow down otherwise I would have blown up on the final interval.
I've finally reached the point where running is fun rather than just an exercise in pain tolerance! Feels good, first parkrun tomorrow :)
