Sometimes your intuition overpowers your will. When was your last checkup/physical? God forbid anything serious is wrong, but you might want to go get checked out. Or maybe it was your guardian angel (if you believe in guiding spirits) protecting you from something dangerous down the road. Or, yeah, maybe it's just a bonk.
I had a workout like that once. A quarter mile into my normal walking route, and I just couldn't go farther. I stopped right where I was and sat on a low wall for the longest time trying to assess. I didn't feel sick, tired, nothing. No weird heart rhythms, no shortness of breath, no muscle strains. Nada. But my mind would not let me walk on. I finally got up and returned home, and went out the next day with no problem.
Good luck on tomorrow's run.
