Week 7...

[Yoshi1]

Started week 7 today... boy it was tough...I’ve been doing and feeling great so far but did struggle today, felt like time stood still....I’m hoping it’s just a one off.... loving the app so far.. Jo Whiley is an awesome coach...

Some runs are tougher than others let’s hope you breeze through the next one and well done for getting this far

Sometimes runs are tougher than we are expecting... great job beating a tough one.

There’s often a reason for it, and if you can identify what it was that’s great (hydration, nutrition, sleep etc) as it can be corrected for next time. Occasionally, runs just suck... the next one is generally much smoother.

In this case, if you look at the last three runs to W6R3 and then the last three to W7R1 you’ll notice that there’s a step up even though the two individual runs are the same... some of that feeling today will be down to that. Your body is adjusting to the workload, and you’ll be fine next run.

Thanks for the support and advice I think I just surprised myself as W6R3 was ok so was expecting to sail through...I’ll see how next one goes... I am loving the app feeling so much more healthy

All the best for your next run, hopefully normal happy running will resume. Relax and enjoy the run.

Well done for completing it! Some of the runs are tough but often the following one feels so much better! Two day breaks can help too because you can feel fresher.

When it starts to feel harder, you’re starting to get somewhere. If it’s easy, your body knew how to do it already.

Wise words...thank you

Stick with it - you’re doing great ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Don't dwell on a 'bad' run. It doesn't mean the next one won't be brilliant. I often find the lower my expectation, the better the run. 👍
