How could I run over 30 seconds slower for the smae race only 3 days apart???
I was fresh and ready for it both times. Did 3 similiar warmups, ate and drank the same amount of food within hours of the race. THe only major difference food wise is that for the 11:47 I ate a bigger lunch. It was also much hotter at Sectionals.
When I ran my 11:19 it felt good, like a jog almost and I barely sweat. When I ran my 11:47 I was dripping sweat and tired.I didnt really run the day before my 11:47 but I ran a mile or so before my 11:19. Both workouts days before those times were similiar..maybe the 11:47 one was harder.
What do you think it was?? Maybe a combo of everything above??
I just feel like giving up on runnign because of that horrible performance!!
