Yesterday evening was my first run in 2&1/2 weeks, thanks to the current school bug & the first run Iβve enjoyed in a month - with hindsight I may have been βbug brewingβ because I was struggling and beginning to think that somehow the ability to run for 30 minutes had deserted me.
Off I went with no time in mind, just the intention to see how it went and deliberately going slow and staying slow. I canβt tell you how lovely it was to enjoy a run from beginning to end after struggling. π

Great to hear!!! πππ So pleased that you have had a lovely run! And glad that the bug has departed. All the very best for your onward running journey! πββοΈ
βBug brewingβ is often the cause of a run struggle! I hate that. And I never put two and two together until much later, always assuming I have just lost 50% of my fitness for no reason and because I am rubbish! π Glad to hear you are back out there and over your bug. π π π·
And yay for a lovely run. Well done, Elfe. πππ
Thank you Sadie. π You are absolutely right. I just thought that my ability to run for 30 mins had leaked away & yes, thought I was rubbish. Bah to bugs!π
