Oomph, this was hard. I couldn't breathe, my legs were from lead, the wind somehow was always in my fave and not the back, and it started raining at the end of the run. At least my dog was obedient and she was happy to run with me :)I googled reasons for lead leg running feeling, and I don't expect any of the following:
- iron deficiency - I hope not
- dehydration - I was drinking a lot recently
- intense training - debatable, I did have additional rest day
- poor stretching routine - definitely not! I stretch at least as long as I am running
- incorrect shoes - hmmm... I was running in this shoes and had great runs
- poor running form - maybe today I had a Phoebe running technique, but noone was starting or looking suspiciously at me, but cannot fully exclude this one
- lack of sleep - 7.5h tonight, and about 11h previous night, and 8h on average for the past 5 months
- low-carb diet - nope, 2 slices of wholemeal bread for breakfast, potatoes for lunch, nope, I love carbs ❤️
I will blame stressful day at work and change of the weather, because why not!
Let's call it mission completed. Week 3 finished 🎉🎉🎉
Am I ready for week 4? Who knows! We will find out soon 😅
