After about a year of just focusing on strength and HIIT, I’m looking to get back into running. I’m working through a C25K program (running 3x per week) but I’m having the same issue I did in the past - my lower body is so fatigued and sore from running that I’m having a hard time getting strength training in. How have you balanced this? I’m wondering if I should just focus on running until I reach my 5K goal, and then slowly reintroduce strength as the running gets easier, but I’m open to ideas! I’ve made a lot of progress and would hate to lose it. Thanks for any advice!
