My own fault

I haven’t run since last Friday, back at work after 2 weeks off & life kinda got in the way. Went out for wk6 run2 this morning and it was a real struggle. My first 5 minutes of any run are always tough but the break in between the runs broke my rhythm and the second 10 minute run was torture but I managed it. On a more positive note I ran the furthest I’ve ever managed today!
