Running 1:10:00 [3]

morning run with laura in rivelin. so very muddy, and it poured with freezing rain, and we didnt wear jackets or buffs and she had shorts!!! still felt drained but fun!

before the race id thought i couldnt be runnin worse than noonstone disaster race - but felt just as awful if not worse. even though i was going so slow i was really really trying to try but my legs werent having it -werent just my legs that killed and totally unable to breathe but also just felt like entire exhaustion !?

weird cos i thought my training has been going well. and fast ish. but aparently it might take 6 months to run normal again. but absolutely cannot race at the moment. 30 mins of that i can stand but 2 or 3 hours in ireland i know i cant

Running (pm) 28:00 [2]

night run with dad to 'test out his hamstring'. it bucketed it down 5 minutes in. but the hamstring was ok - so good, in fact, that he turned the run into a race (which i won) and then ended (as lots of our runs do) in an argument.

Circuits 40:00 [1]

no energy whatsoever, still glad i went though

Note

test results = very low ferritin levels (3 whatevers - it should be over 25 apparently) explains my complete lack of energy & crap running at the moment
it's good because i was slightly worried that i might just be really unfit!

Now on a massive high dose of pills for a while...yay...

Running 15:00 [2] 2.0 mi (7:30 / mi)

jog down to library then around a bit. hill from sainsburys made me very tired

C • really unfit 2
