Start of 2nd week of consolidation runs

[Redcello41]

Only did a 10 minute run today because I don't want to aggravate my top thigh muscle too much. My plan is to do 2 more 10 minute runs this week, then 3 20 minute runs the week after and then build up to 30 minutes again in time for my race in July! My suspected pulled/injured muscle feels okay after my run today, I feel like it's opened up and less tight. Just got to see how it feels on my next run!

I don’t have the answer, but I hope someone else does, as I have a similar problem. Bad ache in upper thigh, so unsure whether to skip a couple of days or start with consolidation.

I would suggest to go for one slower but longer run instead of doing 3x the same run. This is just my personal experience. I know you have physical limitation at the moment but 10min jump may be pretty hard on the muscles. With longer/slower runs, your body would know what to expect and thus will help to run the 30min again.
