For the past four weeks I have been enjoying the physical and mental health benefits of getting back into running after a prolonged health issue. I have been determined to do things properly, building my strength and stamina slowly to reduce injury.
So with my structured training plan and motivation in bucket loads, I have really come on well, and even popped in a couple of extra runs...and that's what happens I start to push myself too much. So I now have a chest cough and my routine has been truly broken along with my spirit.
However it's all of my own doing. I only have myself to blame. You see I love a plan and I love to work hard and try to get ahead of the plan. I forget that there will always be a curveball, me! And should of planned for that or just stuck to the plan? And maybe I would be running this morning..who knows?
I should of listened to my body earlier and rested, I shouldn't of push myself so hard. I will still reach my goal but it will take a slightly different route. Today I will rest and tomorrow I may be feeling a whole heap better 😁
