This was a short 2K run sandwiched between two walks. I was originally going to do a 5K today but my legs advised against it, so I said, “Okay, legs, you win this time!” Then I ran 2K on the river trail because it was nice out, and I figured 2K is short enough to not make the legs go, “WHAT ARE YOU DOING? I SAID NO RUNNING!”
I actually tried pulling back a bit around the midway point, then thought it’s only 2 km, do I really need to rein myself in? So I did, but only a little. The run was fine, no issues. As it was the river trail and a fair bit less than 5K, I managed to break the 6:00/km barrier. It’s still nice to do that, even with caveats.
