Don't beat yourself up

Getting out there is the greatest achievement

Just try again next time 😊

It’s a great run to build you for the next, it will have done a lot of good! You were 90% of the way when the tank ran out... next run the tank will be a little bigger. Did you go slightly faster than last time out?

I did go faster than last time but slower than time before that. Thank you unfitnomore 😊

If you emptied the tank that means you were pushing yourself. Your performance was much better for you than staying on the couch. Well done for a good effort and go again!

Yes my heart rate was on max for the last 5 mins and when I saw that, it made me stop as was a bit worried as I had already tried slowing down so couldn’t go any slower 😁

If the tank was empty maybe you were going too fast? There's no rule about how fast you have to run. Slow and steady is the best advice I ever got on here. As slow as you need to to complete each run. Then if you want to, work on speed. Or be a happy snail like me! 🐌🐌🐌😁
