5th consolidation run...,

Legs like lead today and I have no clue why. I felt tired all day yesterday but thought I was just being daft. I’m hydrated so it’s not that. I think I need an extra rest day.

Still, on the up side, different route which helped a bit and 35 mins of running. Thinking about it, maybe that’s it. Maybe the extra 5 mins is too soon for me?

Whatever the answer is - I’m not giving up now.

Not every run can be a good one, but there's something good in every run!

Overall tiredness can have a massive effect. What, and when we eat, on top of hydration. Sometimes we're just tired. 👍🏻🙂

Thanks, JoJo. The fact that I finished it Keeps me somewhat positive about the run because I DID complete it without stopping. I’ll chalk it up to experience and listen a big better to my body next time. Cheers 😊
