Day 4: 5k distance on Freedom--Maine loop. Felt great at first, but started feeling dizzy. Looked down at my Garmin as soon as I felt dizzy and it was 1.77 miles into it...I'm finding a pattern here! Same thing as usual, kicked in on pure adrenhaline. Today, I finished with an 8:10/mile average. Great improvement over the last few days, that's definitely something to be proud of!! It's good to be able to go at my old easy pace, but the problem is that it's not easy anymore. I know I'll get to that point, though.
I was very, very dizzy after! I collapsed on the floor of my apartment, and I think it scared the living daylight out of my roommates! Logically, I knew that I should have called it a day right then and there and taken time to rest. However, me and Jake had plans to play pickleball, so I gave myself half an hour to recover and get some food, then played. It was so much fun! I didn't tell him how dizzy I felt, I wanted him to think that he legitimately beat me by 8 points each time. ;) |
