Finding it hard this week shook the cold off and ankle feeling better but just struggling 😏can’t get in a rhythm breathing all over the place can’t say I’m enjoying it anymore. I was so positive on Wk 5. Not sure if I should go back a week ??

Don't go back, just slow down.

You can't maintain the same pace now the runs are longer. The speed will build with time, but you do not build a running body if you are not getting good oxygen flow throughout the body.

Well done, you are doing great.

Onwards and upwards, just slow it down a bit and keep going forward

I must admit to be quite daunted by the weeks and runs ahead. Foolish me for peaking. Stay positive for us...and go slow :)
