cheating/compromise

It has happened. Before 5 months I cheated. Or at this point it's a compromise. Let me explain. I went running today. After getting back late yesterday and having to wake up early today I was tired, tired, tired. Almost didn't go/gave up early but managed to push through and completed 6 km in 36 minutes. Of course as it is the end of the week I should have gone on to intervals. But I was exhausted. Honestly thought I'd faint. I sat down straight after the finish line and the guy on the treadmill next to me actually stopped his workout to ask me if I was ok! I must have looked absolutely destroyed. So after a lot of thinking I decided not to do the intervals today. I went and did some mobility work and made sure I stretched properly instead. The compromise is that I'll do intervals on Tuesday after the strength session. This is not ideal, but it felt necessary. Yes, I feel guilty.

Running: 6 km, 36 minutes (lvl 10-11.5)
Bending

On a brighter note our old knee felt ok today. Still far from good but a little better is better than worse.
