Mondays are always long run
days for me. After a fun weekend away, I started the day already feeling
exhausted. The day started off busy, with a delivery of materials for our house
renovation 🚚. Then a morning of wallpaper stripping 🧽, followed by a well-needed
lunch 🍽️.
Despite my fatigue, I laced
up my shoes and set off for my afternoon run 👟. The sun was shining 🌞, and the weather was
perfect for a long, steady pace run. But as the miles ticked by, I couldn’t
ignore the lack of energy in my legs and the heaviness in my body. I knew
something was off.
By 4pm, my Garmin did what it does best: it gave me a reality check ⏱️. My body battery was a 5%! The message was clear - today wasn't about pushing harder; it was time to embrace recovery 🛀.
Progress isn’t just about
the grind—it’s about knowing when to rest, recharge, and listen to our bodies 💡. For me, Monday turned into
a reminder that recovery is just as important as the run itself. Time to focus
on restoration and ready myself for the next challenge 💯.
