Completed wk7 run 1 this morning decided to go along canal instead of usual route. Last attempt stopped at 20 mins I think the route and bordem had set in just goi g in circles around park. Still goi ng really slow not seeming to make progress at all. Felt good when finished but really struggled.

Well done. Slow is the best. Keep going I’m rather dreading the continual runs !!

Well done, but it sounds like you need a distraction..........do not think about time or running...........music, comedy podcasts, shopping lists, the perfect world trade deal or how to achieve world peace...........anything!

Running for me is the most productive spell of thinking time that I get in a day and I can lose myself in my thoughts and I rarely run with anything in my ears these days.
