Yesterday - feeling it from some heavy sessions earlier in the week, brain fog all day, headed out at lunch in the lovely winter sun, hands got too cold and zero energy. Kept it really easy pace and walked some hills thinking I might just need to warm up a bit and I'd feel ok. Never really got going and felt crap the whole 6 miles. Had dinner and then went off to lead an interval session for my running club in the evening fully expecting to just completely fall apart or just have a miserable time... 12x90s on/off, felt good, strong, went hard, kept up with running club buddy who is faster than me, finished feeling like I'd had a proper workout (good tired muscles feeling) but brain fog gone and I was completely wired the whole evening and couldn't sleep when all I had wanted to do before going out was to go to bed.
What's that all about then?
