Hi Ed,

Hope you had a nice Christmas and Happy New Year!

I ran 10km race yesterday, but it did not go so well, 42.42!
It was a struggle from the start, just could not mantain any decent pace or excellerate. I was a little optimistic after my last 5x2000m even though I had a cold for 3 weeks.
It felt like I had not run for 10 years!
Anyway its behind me now and I will start day 1 of a new session tomorrow.


Thanks

be a little kind to yourself .. the last period of sickness has taken much out of you .. a patient return is required

Hi Ed,

Monday: 5km 5mins per km pace
Tuesday: Planed to run 10km however had to reduce it to 5km as It was not feeling ok, zero strenth again...
Checked my resting pulse and i'm up 14 beats!
I will rest until it is normal.
Its werd because I feel normal just no power when I exert myself. I think I need to listen to what my body is telling me.

thanks

Hi Ed,

It been a while since I last posted but I have had a chest infection so have been unable to do any running. Its taken ages to shake off. Cough is almost gone so should be back into things this week.
