Really didn't want to do this run, felt sore all over, I've had a bit of a cold and just generally meh.
Forced myself out of the door.
That not feeling able or in the mood for a run didn't really change much during the run - had plenty of niggles and gremlins telling me 'just stop' - legs were like lead at the end but I finished it.
Getting there slowly but surely.
Slow and steady is the way...you beat the gremlins.. and you were not on form. A runner.. you did it... take a rest.. and if needs be, take two rest days..
it's a journey, not a race... so just go with it Well done!
Well done David, a great run!
These are the days where the 'runner' is made - you just got out there anyway! Well done🙂🙂!
Well done for getting out there. It's not easy at the moment but you did it - a runner!
Well done for getting out there. I started week 8 on Tuesday and found it tough as well. I think it's just this time of year (too much food, no routine, and too many germs flying around!!
We're nearly there!!
I'm fine with routine at the moment - not having a drink at all in December has definitely made the running easier and I've not overeaten - but I agree about the bugs flying around - hopefully some warmth in Florida from Sunday onwards will cure my sniffles.
Maybe leave an extra rest day between this one and your next run
I had an extra rest day (well actually not rest but not running), ran Monday and then Thursday - don't think a 16 hour day working on Wednesday did me any favours - Last day in an office for a couple of weeks today
That'll be it then on top of the cold. Next run will be easier
Hopefully
