Wk4 R1

Had a good rest yesterday so was ready to go this morning. Did the run quite well using slow jogging. Did not get to out of breath but my legs are tired. Feel really good about it. Took a new rout that was not so hilly but all on the road. My daughter is so good she keeps turning round and jogging back to me. Don’t think I could do it without her.

Well done.

Stretching immediately after every run, nhs.uk/live-well/exercise/h... while muscles are still warm and supple, pulls out contractions, avoiding carrying tensions into the next run and also improves recovery by improving blood flow.

Heavy legs can be symptomatic of poor hydration. As a runner you need to drink 2.5 -3 litres of fluid each and every day, running or not, as mentioned in the guide.
