Just did run 4 of #CouchTo5K - no endorphins today. I was tired, wore too many clothes, which meant I dehydrated myself (yay for dyoralite) Iâm still glad I went but maybe running the day after working v late and sleeping badly isnât a good idea. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đââď¸" title="Läuferin" aria-label="Emoji: Läuferin"> Wednesday will be better https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đŞ" title="Angespannter Bizeps" aria-label="Emoji: Angespannter Bizeps">
