Well suffered my worst run to date 😟 My last two 25mins run went exactly to plan but today felt so much longer..felt like it was never going to end...didn’t enjoy it one bit. Feeling pretty despondent 😭

Thats a shame Webby..you still did it though.

Put it down to experience, maybe you started too quickly, not your best time of day, feeling a bit out of sorts...😐

Its ok to take extra rest days at this stage, now its just running. Rest and go again and hopefully W7 R3 will feel better.

Good luck😊x

Thank you..probably wasn’t feeling my best this morning. Maybe I should have waited until tomorrow.

Don’t let it put you off. We all have good and bad runs. Maybe you are coming down with a cold or something or it could just be a blip! Stay positive and believe in yourself. You can do this. Good luck with your next run 😀

Thanks. Just took me by surprise that I struggled so much but I’m going to take comfort in the fact I completed it!

You ran.. you did it.. rest up... stretch those legs.. and then next time out.. slow down!

These are the lovely relaxed runs...just go gently.. start slow and end slow.... let the newly found running legs find their happy pace:)
