I didn’t really want to run today which I think was my problem. But went anyway 😉 Week 4 run 1 and it was hell.....

However I made it and once again am proud of myself. I hated this week 1st time around too but had forgotten...

Anyway folks that’s all - got a long way to go 🙃just happy running!

Great job. Beating the tough run is an essential running skill, we all get them. Next one will be smoother for sure. Enjoy.
