10 to 7....5/2

7 miles (6:14 pace)

I had thought about doing a medium 10 today but I realized with the mileage that I wanted to hit for the week that it would probably be better just to do 8. Well on the way out I didnt feel great at all. I had that feeling that if I didnt turn around at 3 miles I would suffer from dehydration. I ended up compromising on turning around at 3.5 for a 7 mile day.
Usually when I have a run that doesnt go well, I end up feeling decent either at the end or when I first start. I did not have the good fortune of either today. Early on I felt like I was hurting from dehydration and at the end my groin was hurting the way it usually hurts at the beginning of a run.
Its hard to keep convincing myself but I still believe that running with the pain is still better than not being able to run at all.
