It's 15 weeks and two days out from my target Half Marathon (and just over 10 weeks until the Qld Half if I happen to be ready that early). My 3k time trial on Tuesday came in at 14:33. I'm happy it's a sub-15 time, but it did feel a little elephant-like around the 800m mark, and I didn't feel like the finish had any kick to it - just me lumbering along as fast as I could make my legs move. There's a few time trials left over the 15 weeks, so hopefully I can get that down closer to 13.30...
Wednesday's "comfortable" run didn't really fit that description - the first 2 kilometres were ok and then I felt sluggish for the rest of the run. But, as is quite often the case when I don't feel I'm running smoothly, I actually ran at a reasonable pace for the session. I think perhaps that it's just one of those weeks where all my runs will feel off... will see - have a speed session planned for this afternoon.
