labored 5km

I had planned for a 5km run this morning, and I got a 5km run this morning.

So why was this unexpected?

Because I was feeling great. I tought after yesterday's fast run I would be feeling stiff and sore all day and my legs would be heavy and tired. But they weren't. I was feeling great. When that happens, even if I planned on a distance, I very likely might extend it. Maybe to 6 or 7km, in this case.

But even though I was feeling great, my run was slow and felt a bit labored. So I kept it at 5km, even though I could have extended it.
