JT-
I followed your advice for a bit of a rest, then on Monday I was getting grouchy from not having an exercise fix so jumped on my bike for a quick 40k in the evening...
Today I did my 5Km route over the hill again, and was a little slower than usual 27minutes dead for 5.2km. The pacing was much better however and I didn't feel as bad at the end. Obviously still panting like a dog and sweating buckets, but the rest seems to have let everything settle a bit. Ill try building in a proper days rest every couple of weeks while I get a bit more run fit.
Im going to plan out a flat 5km route that I can try to see what my pace is.

Good advice. Ive been doing alternate days running and strength work will take a few
extra days off to see if I feel better next time.
I miss competitive sports.
