Week 2 Run 2 done....

5 Replies

Hi guys.

So was supposed to do this run yesterday but nobody could pay me to go out in that nasty weather we was having. I kept looking out the window hoping that the wind and rain would go away but to no avail.

I was abit annoyed because I already had a 2 day break over the weekend and yesterday would've made 3 days with no run but it's ok. Did a weekend full of nightshifts with little sleep, so the extra day of rest was probably for the best.

Went out this morning though. Blue sky, sun shining & completed my run. No pains or tightness at all but it felt hard today. Probably because I stuffed my face like a pig yesterday. (Guess we all have those days once in a while).

Looking forward to Thursday now. Last run of week 2.

Me the same on W2R3. Leaden legs and a lot of puffing and panting. (I had felt super smug because I did go out on Monday in lashings of rain at 6am to do W2R2 - so much for smug now!) Good luck for your last W2 run tomorrow (?) and see you in Week 3... I kick off W3 on Saturday in what I hope will be glorious Bank Holiday weather!!

Awww I'm sure we're not the only ones. It's strange how one run can feel ok and the same run on a different day feels like we have the world on our backs. I don't get deterred easily though and so will be putting week 2 to rest tomorrow morning. Oh and yes the weather reports for the weekend are looking lovely. Good luck.

Cheers Donna! Hope you got W2 in the bag this morning. Much nicer morning for it too. Roll on W3 :-)
