Last Monday, as part of the bridge to 10k programme I ran 9k. Wednesday I tried a speed podcast and managed about 20 minutes. Today was my first chance to run since then and I loaded up the same speed podcast.....only managed 25 mins - not even 4k. What the heck??? Well, it's not beating me. I'll try again on Wednesday.

Well done for not giving up. I suspect its a temporary blip.
The reply you may not have expected is in the form of a question.
What is the fastest you can actually run backwards ?
The world record is an astonishing 6mins for a mile which would be about 20 minutes for the 5k.
So even going backwards can make you quick... 
Happy running.

And today I did manage the whole run, so am feeling absurdly chuffed with myself.
