Wot stamina?

Managed to get on the treadmill this evening. I really find running after a full day tough. So it was the stamina podcast - only 35 mins - I know I can do that. Long story short I had to stop a couple of times I am feeling cream-crackered.

Covered 4 miles in total but lost a kilo in sweat. I think because I've been doing lots of outside running my legs have forgotten how to run on the treadmill.

Still it was better than no run.

Hope your runs are better

I have never run on a treadmill so can't comment myself, but have heard it's quite different.

Good for you for completing it though. When runs are tough it's easy to give up, but you didn't :-)

It was a lovely mild evening for running outside! I ran outside this morning when it was a bit too hot. Great to be out though

24 degrees too hot for me

I haven't tried the other podcasts yet, I'm looking forward to them at some point.
