W21R2 - Tired running after a tiring week (peronal log) :-)

Second challenging week. Today it was "on the edge".

It's 8° outside and it's raining. I'm really tired and I don't want to go out at all.

I run very slowly.

My left knee hurts.

I think I stepped on the wrong stone because it was hidden under the leaves.

But nothing serious happened, I finished the run. :)

Nothing special, my slow 5km :-).

Hopefully it will be better on Friday.

Happy running!

Well done ! But don’t risk injuring yourself with a sore knee..I woke this morning with a headache and I could hear the rain hitting my window but I did what you did and got up and did it …and like you I did a very slow run 7 min per Kilometer ( normally 5:55 to 6:10) but you know what the end i felt Alive and energized…the mental strength is stronger than your body 🤔

I ran too! Very slowly and carefully. I didn't want to because it was only 5 degrees Celsius and it was drizzling. I hope you made it too! 👍 :)

🍏 Well done Lusmo! If you find you are becoming too tired take an extra rest day and your body will feel as if it’s had a holiday ( your mind too)
