My brain is so predictable. After the first hill run today, coach said: “you were one second slower than the others.” But we both missed that I started further away and therefore ran longer (and was running fast enough). But my brain went: “what!? Too slow!? Let’s go full speed in the next run!” (Competitive much?) That this wasn’t very smart I realized in the runs that followed. It resulted in one of the hardest sessions I ever did. But I survived and that means another good session in the books. Three more days left in South Africa!
