I mean, my fitness taking a downturn, not 'how to get fit by only running in reverse...'
In April I ran my first half-marathon. I'm not fast, and I'm old, I wanted to run my first 13 miler before my sixtieth birthday and that's in November. After the half marathon I went back to my 'normal' running, which is 4/5 miles a day with one 7/8 mile run during a week.
I was doing all right through May and suddenly we've hit June and my legs have turned to lead, I am running 4 miles on a good day, sweating and puffing and having to stop and walk. I've been healthy, eating normally, not gained any weight... and I am perfectly used to running in all weathers; sun and wind and rain, so it's not weather based.
So why is it happening? It's making me dread going out...
