Knowing When Not Run!!

[BGood]

So tonight I had to bail out of my schedule run 🏃‍♀️ my mind was saying come on you can do this but every part of my body was saying no!

Did our normal warm up and it felt ok as soon as I started to run it was like a wall of pollen hit me my eyes started to stream my nose and then my chest joined in que asthma that was it Nothing I could do but 🛑 stop ✋ Oh well try again tomorrow!

Well done for listening to yourself. Pushing through when you feel bad is never a good idea. The runs will wait (and the pollen count reduce)

Thank you it’s a bloody nightmare!

Good on you! I’m doing the same-I’d planned a run this evening but it’s been migraine this afternoon and I’m still not feeling 100%. The runs will still be there tomorrow. ❤️

sometimes it has to be done been suffering all week with dry mouth and throat all week hasn’t helped!

When your body talks... listen... well done you... it is your best guide...as MissUnderstanding says, the runs wait.

Well done!

I've had a head cold all week and hadn't run since parkrun on Saturday. I wasn't sure whether to attempt a run this evening, so did my shortest routine, allowing myself the permission to stop at any time.

I was perfectly fine during the run itself but had a little coughing fit on the cool down walk, probably due to the activity moving things around.

I have done that one before and had a massive asthma attack after it! So knew not to do it!
