I don't know why, but I almost had to talk myself into going out for this run today. Today's pace is the fastest I've seen it with the the same heart rate. I think my body was trying to cheat me out of a great run such as todays. I did get 8 hours of sleep, maybe it's just one of those days, at least I got this run in the books.

Welcome to the blog. I have the same issues with talking myself into running sometimes. I found I do better if I run at lunch or in the afternoon as I never want to run early in the morning.

What was the pace?

Are you planning on running any races in the near future?

Running is work. If you want to succeed it is something you just do. You make a plan and then you execute it. More often than not you will not naturally want to do the workout you have planned.

But if you ignore the feeling and do it anyway regardless, it will separate you from the "fun" runners that run only when they feel like it. It will show in a race. You fill find yourself much further up the ranks than you thought your natural talent could take you.
