And you earn the right to have that fun and enjoyment by doing the hard miles now, in the cold and the dark, when you're tired and achey and really don't feel like it.
It's like investing in your own future pleasure. Sort of the same as putting the effort into writing a good fab profile
But less sweaty...... | |||

Shin splints "Ouch one of the guys at work that runs a lot, as in 250 miles in one go!! He told me to run on my toes as this acts as a shock absorber than landing flat footed and your legs taking all the shock....i don't know if thats what causes shin splits....if not its a bit of useless information for you  lol | |||

Hand in hand with that, a faster stride frequency with shorter strides also reduces the stress on joints. Not easy to change your natural running style, but for anyone who is struggling with injury, it's worth considering | |||

"Week 2 run 3....i decided to run at the park, its flat but concrete paths, my usual run is on a bridle way which is ups and downs but mainly down till a big hike up at the end for the cool down.....now i found today harder and my shin muscles really hurt, it was a hard slog but afterwards as i was walking to my car i felt i could've run again but i didn't. Next run on wed. I was wondering how everyone doing? Whats everyones pain? Breathing or legs? I thought mine would be breathing but its my legs "Good to have a change of scenery, but the hard surface is likrly yo effect your legs more, although down brifle ways possibly more chance of falling over tree roots lol.

"Day off of running today, but I have booked a badminton court for my daughter and I tonight. Haven't played since school.... Could be interesting depending how I feel tomorrow I will continue my run
Are you running today . Did you win at badminton?
No running today as we jogged to the badminton centre and back only 1 mile either way. As different leg muscles were used last night, I'm a bit achy today. And I let her win ""Let her win" - it's all about playing the long game when your after some late night action | |||

But my app wanted to start charging me to start week 3 so the last two runs I have repeated week 2's, not ideal, but I can see that my times are better than when I ran before.
I know people have mentioned free apps on here on previous threads, can someone please recommend some which won't try and charge me to use it!
Thank you x | |||

"My second run of the week and another fail, looks like I'll have to repeat this week again. I'll keep trying it until I get there because I'm already doing more than last week." No shame at all in repeating a week if you are struggling a bit, will serve you better in the long run than struggling on at a level you're perhaos not quite ready for. You're progressing which is the important thing. | |||
