• also up to halfway through week 5 of the runners world 6 week C25k plan. been feeling pretty strong through it so hoping to complete a 5k next weekend if all goes well.

    had to fucking say it didn't I. sore knee since day after I posted that so missed last 2 runs. ffs.

    thankfully i didn't bother signing up to any runs to encourage myself so it's fine taking it a bit slower as needed, i just want to crack on though as i've been enjoying it.

  • I’m having a similar experience at the moment. I’m struggling to get out running, but I think booking races is going to be counterproductive. Booking races or making plans is fairly standard for me to help me gear up and get on with it, but at the moment I think that extra pressure would tip the balance from positive encouragement into unnecessary pressure that spoils the enjoyment I am having with the little running I’m managing.

    At the end of the day, less running that’s maintained over a longer period is more constructive than a short period of high activity that gets curtailed by injury or burnout.
