It's nearly inevitable. If I have a mission, any mission, my run turns out better. The mission is often related to running a specific course or doing some sort of speedwork or tempo tun. If I set out with that goal in mind, the run at least has a chance of being successful. This all makes sense for a goal-oriented person. It probably does for everyone.
Today the goal was to complete the Brunswick Lake course: a few miles over to Brunswick Lake, two to five one-mile loops around, then back. It didn't start out so great. The problem? I was tired and sore. How's that for unique? But then I slowly unwound and the pace improved.
Got the ten in, and it wasn't awful. Had I not went out on that course, it would have been.
