04/21: 6mi - MB Wk13

PLAN: 6mi
RAN: 6mi @ 8:50-8:30-9:20-10:30-?-?=9:17m/mi
LOC: Herrick Lake
EL: 7-6-+

Everything that could possibly go wrong went wrong on today's run. Firstly, it was freezing cold by the time I got out (mid-40s) with VERY strong wind gusts. My options were t-shirt or t-shirt and jacket. So 80% of the time I felt very overheated despite every zipper being open. With all that discomfort, and for whatever other reason - it just felt like the wind killed me - I was dying on the 3rd mile. At which point - conveniently - my headphones broke.
I finally struggled my way back to the lake only to find out that I ran 5-miles (yes, I accidentally mapped a 5-mile route and titled it as 6mi), so I had to run another circle around the lake. The wind wasn't bad so that last mile did not actually feel terrible.

What a nasty run. ehhh. I guess I was due to have a bad one eventually!!
