The first W7 run went so well I was delighted, then the second was Ok but today I never did get into a proper rhythm, everything was hard work, and I couldn’t wait to hear I just had a minute left to run! It is still niggling at me hours later but my other half pointed out I had just run 3 x 25 minutes in one week when a couple of months ago I was cheering at running for a couple of minutes at a time!
So, Saturday is the start of W8..... 😳

You’re other half is wise... celebrate that progress. 28 and 25 won’t feel much different, and sometimes we get a tough run... sometimes there’s a reason (hydration, something we ate different, pace etc etc) and sometimes it’s nothing that we can see... usually a smoother run follows though. Having a tough run tests our mental strength... you got to the end, well done! Week 7 adds a lot to your weekly running, week 8 is a small step up from that... relax, you’re gonna be fine.
They are.. start slow and stay slow... and remember to up your strength and stamina work too on some of your rest days...The rest of you has to keep up with the legs
