Week 7 run 3 tough one

I’ve just done run 3 of week 7 and found it hard. Not sure why when I completed the same run twice this week and although not with ease, I wasn’t wishing I was back home with every step like today.

Don't panic!!! It's just like that sometimes. I found week 7 toughest of all. I'm not sure why. I do wonder, in retrospect, if I was unconsciously trying to go faster or was just a bit tired. Perhaps you could try slowing down and check hydration?

The main thing is you did it so you know that you are ready for week 8!!

Only 6 runs to go till graduation celebration !!!

🍏 Week7 has given you excellent advice!! Some runs are just like that even for seasoned runners. However the fact that you did it stands you in good stead! Well done for finishing it through!! ⭐️

Some days are just like that with no obvious reason - you did it and got through it that’s the main thing.

Enjoy your last few runs towards graduation!
