This didn’t quite go to plan unfortunately. Still got the distance in but from the 5km mark I ran walked the remaining 3.1km.

My head got the better of me this time and not being helped by the inability to breathe properly whilst also having to blow my nose every few minutes 🤧.

I felt like this was a decrease in willpower. At the end of the run I was very disappointed in myself for not running the whole way but after letting the dust settle I have realised I didn’t quite prepare for this run properly. A lack of sleep and low glucose in my body will have contributed to lower willpower and although the body is always capable of more than we think preparing properly will help immensely.

Fail to prepare and prepare to fail and all that! I’ll try and take this on going forward 💪🏼
