Had to push myself to do this session. Woke up at 4 AM, got dressed, did approx 0.5m on the tmill in 10 min, found it too boring. So went outside. Pushed myself to run/walk for 3 miles and then gave up, walked the rest.
Realised that whatever my pace- r/w, walk, power-walk, walk like a 13yo whos been asked to get a cup of water, walk relaxed with a smile or walk as if i have missed an appointment, howsoever I walk , I end up with a time of average 15-16 min/mile. And being somewhat consistent all these weeks has made no difference- I think I am just not pushing myself enuf. Or I am a walker and not a runner. Whatevr, I just want to cover 26.2 miles in 6.5 hours.
And the distance does not matter, I was as tired after this 5.53m session as I was last week after 12 miles. So what happened to the conditioning?
Anyway, this week LSD is done, next week is 16 miles. I will be on the road for practically 4 hours or more. They are soon going to ask me to pay pedestrian taxes!

I think you are doing great, especially considering much of your workouts these days are by yourself!! These are some long distances to be going it alone. You just keep going - I know you can do it! You seem to be so dedicated. I hope your sister gets to feeling better with her back. Good luck on your 16 miler!!!
