“Giving up is just too easy.
Stopping before any results have time
to show themselves is all too common”

This was a better week, which started quite well with a hill session on monday and a decent run on tuesday. I actually felt fitter on tuesday and was able to get faster towards the end, although it was still a slow pace.
On thursday my run was still very slow, slower than the previous week, so maybe I was starting to suffer a bit
Friday I could only manage 5km as my shins were sore, and so I haven’t been able to run since.
I’m hoping a bit of rest and treatment gets me back soon. Unfortunately I stepped on the scales on sunday morning and I am still 7kg overweight, I haven’t lost anything yet! This week I aim to step it up with more ab work and some evening sessions…
