Wk6 R3 in the bag

Its amazing how clever I am at putting things off. Two hours sunbathing after work until my daughter politely suggested I shift my butt, run and sort tea out!!! So I did or have and ran some different lanes . Does anyone else want to give up in the first 30 seconds? Its a nightmare I just want to stop for some reason I only really relax when Michael tells me I’m half way though. My left hip hurts a bit, seeing the consultant Wednesday. Anyway I ran for 25 minutes 🙃 25 minutes 😀

Ps the enormous house in the photo is sooo not mine!!!!

Im waiting for my MRI scan result but I think its related to back surgery I had years ago, ironically running doesn’t make it worse it niggles all the time. I do try and stretch after running (listen to me all professional 😂)

Unless you're "weird" I don't think anyone enjoys the first bit of running while all the below the waist bits creak and groan and want to go home again.

It's a known phenomenon, with lots of sciency words and stuff. Just grit your teeth, have a swear and eventually it doesn't feel so awful anymore. And then you're finished!! :-)

Not what you're looking for?
