Finding it pretty tough tbh, I wouldn't usually run on consecutive days and the plan has me doing tue/wed/thu. Combine that with condensed work hours and it's a struggle!
After years of running, then sudden and painful injury stopping me in my tracks, I have learnt that my body just isn't currently up for running on consecutive days. On my off-days, it's 60-90min cycle or a dog walk. I'm also giving a decent amount of time to S&C exercises - WFH definitely helps with this!

Re-jig the plan to avoid this then? Happy to look it through with you if it might help?

One additional point is there’s a difference between feeling stiff/sore and just feeling beat/tired. If you’re doing some good training then a bit of stiffness is normal and probably a good thing. If you’re zonked then your body is telling you to ease up a little

Checking in 2 weeks into the half marathon plan. Finding it pretty tough tbh, I wouldn't usually run on consecutive days and the plan has me doing tue/wed/thu. Combine that with condensed work hours and it's a struggle! Weird knee sensation has returned but I'm feeling more okay about that since tackling it with physio, just need to keep up the exercises. I'm on week 4 now (skipped a week to finish week 12 on race week) and have the pleasure of 6.4km race pace on Wednesday. Kinda excited for it but also dreading it. Just lucky that my partner is home to watch the dog so I can do it in daylight and in the park.
