Morning all what a start to the week w8 r1 ,started my run all fresh after 2 day rest after 1 minute feel over flat on my knees bang 💥 tripped over drain cover great so got up knees stinging carried on with my run . Next disaster couldn't get my breathing right at all even though I was as slow as a snail 🐌 settled a bit after 20 mins but still not right . Then once 28 mins over thank god , I went all light headed so there you go DISASTER

Happy running today it's freezing by the way lol 😂

Sounds to me more like sheer determination and absolute success. Whilst things seemed to conspire against you - you dug deep and got through. Well done. The gremlins will need to try a different trick to get you! Just keep running and believe in yourself - he gremlins will eventually give up!
