Another freezing day today, but with only 5km on the plan, I decided to brave the cold and run outside.

My legs felt heavy from the training load, but that’s actually great for marathon prep—it helps simulate the fatigue I’ll feel late in the race and trains my body to keep going when it’s tired.

Despite the fatigue, I managed to run slightly faster than I did on Monday over the same route, which was a nice confidence boost. By the end, I was completely frozen, but it was worth it!

5km (3.1miles) in 31:16.
