Monday, Paula Radcliffe came on my iPod to tell me I had recorded a new personal best for one of the miles I ran (9:08, apparently). Today, however, I did not have my A game. I was trying to put one foot in front of the other, but I could never get into any kind of rhythm. Usually the high point of my run is when I reach the halfway point, because I know it's all downhill from there... but even making it halfway today did not feel exhilerating.
With about a mile to go, I could tell that I was running really slow. I would have liked to walk the last mile, to be perfectly honest. Instead, I tried to run as fast as I could. I was hoping Paula Radcliffe would come on to tell me that was a new record, but she didn't. At least I finished strong.
