C25K Day 8

Day 8 sucked. Besides the day I didn't complete last week, today was the toughest day so far. Why? A couple reasons.

1. Brian wasn't with me to pace me. I ran a bit too fast at the beginning so by the midway point I was done.

2. I ran later than I usually do so the sun/heat was a major factor. Brian got home for lunch shortly after I got back from the run and he said I looked rough (thanks hon!). I kept putting a wet paper towel on my face in an effort to cool myself off.

I, somehow, finished, but ran ridiculously slow at the end. I probably could have walked as fast and I was "running". Oh well, not every day can be easy. Now I have tomorrow to rest up (and run errands) before I have to try it again on Friday. I think Friday will be better.
