10K leg stretcher - legs like lead

Did a 10K to see how my legs were recovering. Pretty painful at the start but eased off a little but there was no energy. At 5K mark I was 26 minutes and I walked for 200m as the heat(25C) was getting to me.

I ran the remaining 5K but it was very difficult and I really had to work at it. I had little or no energy in my legs and I had no will left to push myself above and beyond. Obviously you only have so much reserves with regards to the ability to push the boundaries of performance. I just could not go any faster and I felt dead on my feet. I finished in 51:33 and was very happy to be done.
