I did my first run for 4 weeks yesterday. I managed 3K and felt I could have done more, which I guess is a good time to stop.
I have been benched (couched?) with a mystery illness during the last month, that put me in A&E. I’m still on antibiotics and definitely ‘not quite right’ yet, a bit lower energy but gradually feeling better.
The run went really well. I took it easy, choosing a simple route that was pretty flat and familiar. I don’t run anything you could consider fast at the best of times.
I will try to fit in another run later this week, maybe going up to 4K - that will be back to almost normal. Short term goal is to break the 5K barrier, so I can fully run parkruns. Next after that is 7K around our local lake - that would be amazing.
