Week 2 now completed after just getting in from the 3rd run . Today started as a struggle as my legs were just not with it in the 1st 2 runs (stiff , tired and aching knees) I'm putting this one down to doing my Run after finishing my nightshift which I was on my feet most of it , I know it's not id...
