Firstly, congratulations to everyone whose still managing to go outside and run, no matter how early or how late you’re doing it. The fact that my car said 32 degrees as I drove to the gym made me think I was glad I decided not to go outside or even walk to the gym today.
I’m in the middle of my cool down right now and I’m annoyed. I feel like I could’ve given a lot more that run. Mentally, I was amazing, I got to the end of the first 10 minutes and couldn’t believe it was over, I wasn’t out of breath and tbh hardly breaking a sweat, which is crazy for me.
I did the 3 minute walk and then set off on the second block of 10. Now my knees were a little sore during the first 10 but I took it slow and felt really good. I set off for this 10 and accidentally hit emergency stop. Fuming. But no worries, I start again and get the treadmill back up to speed, and start running again. Nope, pain in my right leg, my knee hurts and I’m just gahhhh. I made it through the run anyways, taking it really slowly, and pushed through to the end. The pain went as I carried on, but still felt I could’ve given it more.
Luckily, I’ve got to get a very early train Thursday morning to go away for the weekend. I’m going to Glasgow to attend TRNSMT festival, and I come back late Saturday evening. Then Work Sunday morning! So next opportunity to run is Sunday afternoon, but we’ll see how I feel and it might wait until Monday. Hopefully give my legs a bit of time to rest.
Just feeling meh.
Happy Tuesday everyone x
