First run since I started where I didn’t achieve my goal. I had a slight ache in my groin over the last couple of days so decided I’d do a slow 4K this morning. It felt ok when I started but quickly became uncomfortable. Got to 3k and stopped. The strange thing is my last km was the fastest I’d ran since I started. Even though I was concentrating on keeping my jog light and there was hardly no breeze behind me I smashed my PB for a km.
