A Different Recovery

Hey all!

So it’s been a week since my last half and what a week it’s been, such a different recovery after this one.

Monday I woke up and felt exhausted, no energy and my mood felt very low.  Just thought I needed a bit more sleep, but Tuesday and Wednesday I felt the same.  I couldn’t lift my mood and the thought of running or hitting the gym just wasn’t appealing and god knows where I would have got my energy from!  I don’t think I’ve ever felt like that after a half before, I really can’t put my finger on why it was so different this time.

I have been questioning myself am I doing to much, but then I went to the gym on Friday and then went for my first run yesterday and had a great run and felt great after the gym.  So I am just putting it down to a one off I hope, as it wasn’t nice feeling like that and not being able to go and exercise to lift my mood.

I have a 10 miler booked for next week with my running friend Michelle, I’m looking forward to it only being 10 miles ha ha!

Have a great week!
