Some days your role in the universe is to provide an opportunity for all the other racers to beat someone - it was my turn today.
All of my recent physical activity of the running variety (notice I'm not calling it training) has been of the "I need to go out and do something to clear my head to reset my view of how I fit in the universe" type.
Other than orienteering, I've not been big on "racing" for quite some time. My nav skills have been my saving grace for relatively good orienteering results against others who are arguably much faster runners than me.
Might be time to add some speed specific workouts into the mix. As I remember, those can be good for clearing out one's head as well...
