Might seem like a silly question..

I haven't done a run since Monday night, last night I took a night off and hit the gym and did a kettlebell and weights session. My quads and butt ache today, but I'm really keen on running today as I don't want to lose the motivation! I know Laura mentions about legs aching in the podcasts, but I never want to stop as my legs ache, they don't usually ache at all while I run.. in fact its that burning in my chest and the breathing that gets me! So shall I just go for the run today or best to wait until tomorrow!? Thanks in advance

I would run today as per plan and rest tomorrow. Run slowly to avoid getting injured and out of puff

[useitorloseit Graduate]

I'd definitely run, but stop if it really hurts. With normal aches they usually feel better once you get them moving

[AncientMum Graduate]

Yep, I'd run too. Just go very very slowly and steadily - no chest burning allowed!

[no-excuse Graduate]

I agree with all above, go for it, but not too fast x

[mfamilias Graduate]

Go for it! If it hurts, slow down, and have a day off sport tomorrow. Gosh, I sounded just like my mum then.

Do your quads and butt not usually ache after Kettles? if not, you're not doing it right, lol.

Yes, definitely go for a run, but tomorrow do a different type of cross training. Spin or rowing, perhaps.

They do usually ache but even more so today! I used a heavier KB and did more sets haha! What can I say, I can't wait to be fit

[Rignold]

That's the spirit. Major muscle groups screaming in silent protest is how I know I have woken up. Without us the manufacturers of Voltarol and paracetamol would take a damaging dip in profits.

Now go do Spin class.

Run as per normal. Started kettlercise myself a couple of weeks ago. I run the next day. Usually I feel much bigger after effects of the kettlercise after my run the next day !! Doesn't seem to affect the run itself.
