W6R2 has left me feeling like an unfit 62 year old

Which ain’t great for an unfit 40 year old

🤣

Maybe a couple of extra rest days s required before your next run? (Might do you the world of good)

That’s my plan Liz, no running till Sunday or monday

Slow down then... and then slow down more Unless you think you may be sickening for something ?

Have you upped your rest days exercises too.... now the runs are getting longer, the rest of your body really has to keep up with the newly growing running legs

[robOliver in reply to Oldfloss]

I’ve upped it to two days between runs as I realised that’s what my body need. I actually think I’m coming down with a cold

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to robOliver]

Okay.. well rest up... but make sure when you feel better, you get some exercise in on those rest days

Getting fitter 40 year old!! Chill and rest 💪🏻

[robOliver in reply to Catbee]

I can’t argue with the getting fitter part, there’s no way I would have managed W6 R2 even 3 weeks ago

When I did W6R2 , I was an unfit 67 year old who felt like an unfit 77 year old. Now I am a fit 71 year old who feels like a fit 51 year old Keep it up and the same will happen to you

That’s soooo encouraging as I’m a unfit 64 doing this with my very fit 38yr old( more like a 20) runner daughter! Feel like geriatric !!!
