🤬 Way off pace today

PACE

Short by half an hour but likely I won’t get a chance to do my long run on the weekend so wanted to fit some easy miles in. Annoyingly this was the first run for a bit that I’ve had stomach issues. Was starting to get on top of it but was really playing up tonight. I ate about 4/4.30 thinking maybe that was too soon beforehand. Also I did have sauerkraut but I’d read because it’s fermented it’s meant to be really good for stomach issues. Any how yeah it felt grotty today. The hills really played havoc on my Achilles too which they are always groany but today I had to stop and walk. Got it done though and hopefully will do the missing bit on the treadmill

Well done for banking some excellent time of feet Kelly. Sauerkraut can be good for the insides but might just take some time to adjust. But that’s pretty close to running to eat I would say. I know evening runs are tricky with eating but I always wait until I get back and don’t anything after lunch. It’s just a case of keep experimenting and find what works best for you.
