๐ŸWell done Kevin. We have all been plagued with diet and toilet ๐Ÿšป issues!

๐ŸคฃYou need glasses with windscreen wipers! Well I am glad you had Jack Reacher for company keeping you at a good pace! Let us know how the next one goes.

๐Ÿ You are well prepared Kevin. Take it slowly! I had a cheeky peek ๐Ÿ‘€ into the future & you nailed it! Whyโ€ฆ because you know you can do it as all the previous runs have prepared you.. you run slowly to begin with and save energy to get through to the end..

I have had the same issues too! To get fitter you are literally stressing your body and that stress has an impact ...

Just like the tiny muscle tears that weight-lifters and gym bunnies get from using the fancy machines in the gym, so runners are impacting their bodies (and digestive systems!) with the way we push on to run that first minute, first five minutes, through C25K ...

It hit me when I was running 15-20 minutes, went away, and then came back at 22-25 minutes. There have been incidents ...

It's worth it though and your body does adjust and get used to the "stress" you put it under as you get fitter!

Not what you're looking for?
