Week 7 Run 1 - horrid!

[Khrissy]

I had a bad run early on, about week 4 I think, but last nights run was awful, I got a stitch 10 minutes in (not had one of those since I was a child but my husband helpfully pointed out that I've not run since I was a child!) and just couldn't get rid of it, I felt like I was running through treacle but soldiered on and managed the whole 25 mins. As soon as I finished I felt really sick for about 10 minutes and suddenly very hot, my face went bright red and I was exhausted. The mileage was the same as W6 R3 so I hadn't run any faster, really not sure what happened there but not looking forward to tomorrow AT ALL

Write it off as a bad one and try and move on. I've learned they're bound to happen, you just have to grit your teeth through them.

The next one WILL be better.

I agree with Fingalo bad runs happen for no reason, you just have to put it behind you and carry on If you get a stitch it may be worth trying to drink more water before you run that is meant to help. Good luck with your next run am sure it will be fine

Thanks guys, will see what tomorrow brings!

I had this on nearly this exact run. People told me to write it off as a bad run and that the next one will be easier. I didn't entirely believe them. They were completely right. Forget about it and go out with a positive mindset next time and you will achieve your goal!

All the bet
