I'm a little late with this, as I did the run yesterday.

It was difficult. I was moving at a pace only just precisely faster than speed-walking and my legs were just generally unwilling. I blame hunger. I was a bit peckish when I got home from work, but didn't have the presence of mind to eat some fruit or something before going out on the run. Which in turn led to being ravenous by dinner time and eating about twice as much as strictly necessary.

Note to self. Do not go jogging while hungry.

The time wasn't my slowest ever though, which came as rather a surprise for me. So far my times on this route have been very clearly divided into two groups. A group with times around 45-46 minutes and a group with times around 48-49 minutes. I find it peculiar that there aren't any times in between, really, but there you are. My time yesterday, much to my surprise, was my fastest time yet in the slow group. Odd. I had expected it to be the slowest ever because I felt like I was barely moving forwards.

I've done week 4 five times now. I'm not sure I'm ready for week 5 yet, but I might try week 5 next time. I'm just getting bored with week 4 now. The feeling of lack of progress is frustrating. It'll be hard, but I think I should be able to handle it. Maybe. We'll see tomorrow, I guess.
