Not Feelin' Goovy


The last four or five runs I have done seem to be really hard. I am not sure what is wrong, except that I can never seem to fing the "groove." Often, when I start out, it takes a mile or sore to really feel good, but this morning and for every run I have done in the last couple of weeks, it feels really labored.

The first lines of the Simon and Garfunkle's "59th Street Bridge Song," also known as "Feelin' Groovy," are "Slow down, you move too fast." I can assure you that when I am not in the running groove, I am not moving too fast. Heck, when I am in a total groove, I don't move too fast, and yet I am not feelin' groovy as they promise.
