HI Neil .. the body and mind have to get used to zone 3 aerobic running, particularly if threshold was to go to run. With threshold running your movement and stride is more efficient, if you have not done such easy running for a while the gait and form are less efficient causing different areas to fatigue. It may take a little longer than expected but it will swing round as soon as the body absorbs the training and moves to a new level .. next week we will introduce the first 1k paced session with a 1 to 2k warm up and then light warm down ..
hang in there. TheEd

HI Neil .. as you feel tomorrow .. you can consider working hills and recovering on the flat but do note, that working the hills will fatigue you further
so your choice as to how you want to run the parkrun .. maybe save the hill session for next week
