This is the second run I’ve done in the morning and it’s definitely a lot easier running in the morning than after work in the evening. Really enjoyed it today and didn’t really struggle

Brilliant. Well done you. I find it better for me to run in the morning even though I’m retired now.

Thanks, it’s definitely easier, I leave for work at 7 so will struggle to do mornings

Great news keep with it! I run a better pace in the mornings although it feels like I’m going slower I think it’s just because I’m still half asleep.

Haha, I feel more alive/awake first thing, I’m usually shattered in the evening as have an hour and a half commute, helps me sleep well tho 😄

Well done you :-) I'm retired so most if not all my visits to gym, runs, walks are in the mornings.. I did try a week or so ago going to the gym in the evening...just didn't work for me and I'm finding it the same with the runs..probably cause I don't stop thru the day so most of my energy has been used up. If you work I should imagine its the same. :-)

Yep I think it’s work that tires me out, I can at least get one early run in per week,so that’s ok, when I sign up for park run that’s a morning run so should be good 👍😄
