You run fast at tempo runs or speed work. Not every run has to be a fast one.<br /><br />Second: nothing wrong with walk breaks. Don't beat yourself up on that. One day I run 30 minutes straight, the next I need a break every 5 minutes for example. It doesn't matter, it gives your body time to recover during the run.<br /><br />And like Darcy said, you might be overtraining. I would suggest: don't run 2 days in a row and take 1 full rest day every week at least. <br /><br />good luck.

Not sure how that works, but it would seem like your muscles may not be having enough time to recover and your heart is a muscle too.Darcy Wintershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13762044938727103931noreply@blogger.com
