Well done.

Perhaps you are pushing too hard.

Can you speak aloud, clear, ungasping sentences as you run?.........if not, you are going too fast.

An easy conversational pace is the most effective to build your stamina and endurance........faster is not necessarily better.

The slower pace will reduce impact stresses.

Not what you're looking for?
