W2R2 feeling flat

So I found my flat run but it was tough today. I just wasn't feeling the love 😔 A little frustrating, as yesterday I really wanted to go for a run but heeded the advice and took my repair day 😇

Positives are I did it even though I didn't want too and my cadence was much more consistent. It's obvious on runkeeper when I was running and walking.

I'll be doing my first morning run on Friday so will be interesting to see if that makes a difference to my motivation/energy.

We’ve all been there! And as Jo Whiley often says ‘there ain’t no rhyme or reason’! Well done for getting it done regardless 😀

I love early morning running - usually before breakfast. Puts paid to those lie-ins though which is no bad thing

Well done for completing the run regardless! That’s half the battle won, it’s mind over matter. 😀

I personally way prefer running in the morning. I have more life in my legs! Hopefully you’ll enjoy it too. Good luck! 😀👍🏻👍🏻😀

Mental strength is needed running when you don’t want to and not everything is perfect... well done on that one. Good luck on Friday, you’ll either love mornings or not, and there’s only one way to find out!
