Feeling frustrated that the 1st 10 mins of a run is such a struggle? Worry Not....it's not just you!
Why is the first mile of a run so hard? Why is it such a struggle in the first 10 minutes but then things seem to get easier?
Beginner runners often feel that they are making no progress as they can't head out for a run without feeling awful in the first 10 minutes.
In this video I will explain why those first 10 minutes of your run can seem such a struggle. It is down to a thing called Oxygen Deficit and although that may sound quite complicated, it is quite straight forward.
If you can get an understanding of what Oxygen Deficit actually is then you will be able to allow for that first mile struggle more easily.
The first mile of a run needn't be a struggle or a slog if you know how to deal with the oxygen deficit.
