This run started well but for the first time since I started on this program I found the second half tougher than the first. I developed a raging headache 15 minutes in and had to force myself to put one foot in front of the other with feet made of lead. And it felt as if I was developing a bit of a stitch. ☹️

I felt good before I started and was looking forward to this run after my last one in the rain. I can only think I wasn't hydrated enough although I have been drinking plenty of water today. Maybe too many coffees yesterday?

But woohoo!! Week 9 next and only 3 runs left πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€.

Who would have thought it? 😁

Good for you! Sometimes a run just doesn't feel right. You're obviously aware of the hydration thing, so just chalk it up and move on.

Not long to go now. πŸ₯³
