Legs like lead

My breathing has definitely improved but my legs just feel so heavy all the time

Run slow, keep your feet landing under your body and keep the strides short.

I do run slow as can’t go fast but definitely keep in mind for other pointers thank you

I had this problem a couple of weeks back and someone recommended increasing hydration. I’ve been trying that and the problem hasn’t returned, so if that rings a bell with you, maybe give it a try ? Hope things are sorted soon x

That’s most likely my problem I don’t drink enough I will try and increase water intake thanks x

It’s definitely helping me - hope it works for you too. Happy running 😀

Plenty of water. Maybe you need two days between runs for now.
