Why don’t I listen🙈 started run like Mo Farrah hit 3k prior to turning around then struggled for last K !!!

This won’t go down well but I still don’t enjoy running nearly on graduation week and hate every run 🙈🙈🙈 I want to enjoy never felt fitter but not enjoying the experience!!

Sorry to all those who do and envy you all but massively jealous!!

Oh no, hate every run? Really? Why?

Do they hurt? Are you in a nice location when running? Do you listen to any music or podcasts whilst running? Do you run alone?

Yes do all that except I run alone . Think it stems from a former life of bleep tests wearing respirator and not breathing. Sorry so negative but thanks for reply 👍

Well done on staying the course even though you're not enjoying it. Are there any hints/tips or ideas that you're after from us? Or is this a means to an end? It'd be nicer if you could enjoy it I guess...

No Jan you and the gang are great I’ll finish and graduate, think I need to slow down and enjoy rather than doing 5 k every run !! Thanks as usual xx

Slow down... maybe if you did you would enjoy the journey a bit more?

If the runs hurt.. slow down more... and if you just did this to get fitter, then that is fine.. it cannot be a joy for everyone... but if it is fulfilling what you want.. then well done!

Not what you're looking for?
