First run after a week rest : Tomorrow will be... - Couch to 5K
First run after a week rest
You fitness may not be affected after a weeks rest but you’ve not been 100%. So it may have sapped your strength. Providing your ankles ok, give it a go & see how it goes. Try not to put pressure on yourself. Use it as a practice run if you like. As you’ve said, do what’s best for you👍🏻
Just relax... warm up really well and take it slowly. The key is relaxed, slow and steady running.
Relax into it... sounds like you’re loading a lot of mental pressure on it... just go out and do what you can at your pace and you’ve won.
Hi Garden, glad you haven't given up completely. You're doing this for you, remember, so don't push yourself too hard or beat yourself up if you don't do as well as you'd like. You're still recovering, it's ok to take it easy. ((Hug)).
I happy did 3k today but got to think when to run next
