Phew! My legs feel like two sacks of King Edward's but I managed run 2 without stopping! Crikey.

This week I have mostly been listening to: Stepping Out by Joe Jackson. πŸƒ

Well done.

Heavy legs can be symptomatic of poor hydration. As a runner you need to drink a minimum of 2.5 -3 litres of fluid each and every day, running or not, as mentioned in the guide.

It really does make a huge difference. This post explains the crucial nature of good hydration healthunlocked.com/couchto5...
