Found day 3 wk1 difficult like hitting the wall. I did the run in late afternoon whereas first two were in the morning. Is that reason maybe?

I find running in the mornings easier, I run Monday evening and then Wednesday and Friday in the mornings.

I think I find mornings easier because there are less people about to get in my way and I've not been sat at my desk all day. Also I don't have breakfast before my morning runs, I drink plenty of water and rely on last night's dinner to fuel me.

Thank you. Probably best to continue with morning runs this week starting Tuesday.

I find getting out and about easier in the mornings, and I do just fine. But oddly, even though I find it hard to make myself go out in the early afternoons, I actually run quicker without intending to. You just have to find what works for you. Good luck!
