Felt tired today, thought Mrs B was going to run off and leave me, so I kept plodding on, next foot forward and eventually Laura said 1 minute to go, woohoo no need to speed up I just kept going finished the run, I thought why did that feel so different to the last, then realised why analyse it's another 25 minutes done, day and a half rest then focus on next outing.

Poached eggs on toast reward.

If you're following nhs podcast with Laura you'll be fine, make sure you stretch before find a comfortable slow pace. It's a journey not a sprint.

Well done 👍🏼😊 I've had runs like that so I guess that some runs just feel harder than others. At least it's in the bag!

Exactly! Why analyse? It's done. Gone. Finished.

Enjoy the rest days and get back out and plod along.

Mmmmmm....poached eggs
