W8r2 very hard

I was enjoying bouncing along on the new running shoes and the last couple of weeks have felt pretty good. I even did three outside runs but went back to the treadmill when the weather heated up.

Felt quite tired tonight but dragged myself to gym and completed the 28 minutes. Since my shower though I feel exhausted and very achy.

Hopefully this will pass and I'll be ok to continue in a couple of days. Mustn't let it put me off!

Well done on reaching week 8! Wow! The podium is in sight. I'm currently in week 7 and have also benefitted from new running shoes. So much cushioning. I often have some aches and pains which tend to go away by the end of my rest day. Do hope your next run goes well. Congratulations again on reaching week 8.
