I did SPEEDWORK today but due to fatigue and the pace, it made it a bit difficult for me to finish the 5-mile run. In all honesty, speed isn’t my thing and it’s the one thing I tend to take for granted. I know it meant to help you strengthen your legs but it made me stop twice and recover. After 2 miles, I slowed the pace down a little. Then I experienced a cramp at the back of my right leg. So I walked briskly just to do 3 miles but finally halted and stretched. I had a minute to recover and then began running again and finished the 5-mile run.
I need to concentrate more on my running form. My breathing seems OK as I’m not really gasping for air as much as I would expect because of SPEEDWORK. But my muscles aren’t getting enough oxygen thus tightening a little. So warm-up. Never skip it and always run your way. Listen to what your body is saying.
