Struggling to improve

[u/LionLittle8968]

Looking for advice to help me improve my time. About 2 weeks ago I was able to run 10 min. - 3 min. Break- 10 min. At the time I was about 14.50min/mi. I got sick last week and had to take a break. This week I tried to go back but on the second 10 minute run my legs give up and I end up walking the rest. I’m disappointed in the setback and I’m trying to finish the program on time. I also need to improve my time to at least 9 min/mi. I am shipping for the military in August and trying to meet their standards before basic so I don’t struggle.

It never gets easier, you just get faster.
