I was a bit worried as I set off on my run this morning that I was asking too much from my body. Yesterday I had a very demanding shift at work and as I was home by early afternoon I decided to go for a walk , about 8 miles... But for some reason my body felt strong this morning and I was wobbling along very nicely , steady and slow . I did not want to stop for the walk in the middle but did and the second ten minute run was a tad harder but still felt ok and pushed myself slightly harder (nothing stupid) . I am looking forward to Thursday when I just run with no walking between runs. That does not mean I am super confident about it but I find it hard to restart running after walking.

It is so much easier just to keep running and you will love moving onto the continuous runs.
You have already proved that your body can and will adapt to the progressive structure of the plan, so believe in yourself and trust the plan. Between them, they will deliver the goods.
You are doing great.
Well done on both the running and long walk, your motivated that's for sure
Good luck for tomorrow. Rooting for ya 🥳xx

Am I expecting too much
to go faster, run further, or did I ought to be happy with what I'm doing and not push it?
W6R2 and I just can't catch my breath...
I run first thing in the morning so still chilly. I'm finding it really hard to catch my breath....
I think I've done too much
on the run, but afterwards it really gets painful. I walked about 3 miles yesterday. Stupid idea...
Am I thinking too much whilst jogging?
about conversational pace etc: Am not enjoying the runs so much due to having to think too much! 😊...
