Can feel it in the legs this time, struggling to pace myself on the treadmill, any advice? Feels like I can't take large enough strides, feel like I'm tottering

That sounds like me on a treadmill! - Which is why I run outside. If you really want to use a treadmill, I guess you will get used to it. I haven’t used one often, but I did find it helpful to start very slowly and then gradually increase the speed a little. 😃
