Achilles felt they were going to ping, legs like lead weights stopped after 17 mins and could not get going again. Worse run I have had in weeks......deflated πŸ˜”

I think it was my consolidation run 3 that got me too! I had to stop, found every minute hard. But my run 4 was my best 1! Keep going, everyone has hard runs, fingers crossed your next one will feel better. 🀞🀞

Happens to the best runners, give it an extra rest day if you are sore, this warmth is lovely but draining for runners

I hate that heavy feeling awful x and the humidity x but well done for the 17 minutes x it’s still a workout, your body is still thankful, it’s just the brain that is pissed off with you x x take care

I think the first two consolidation runs you are still feeling the glow of graduation. By run 3 it is wearing off a bit and you are missing your coach. Time to shake it up a bit, try a new route, or run the old one in reverse, have a new playlist, whatever works for you :)
