Finding it really hard to get back into the running efficiency I had before this damn injury, seem to be getting tired quicker, can't really run that fast anymore plus my pace is longer.
Just wondering if there's muscle memory for running as there is for muscles when lifting?
I'm still taking it slow but this chit honestly is demotivating af especially when I'm on a timeframe, i'm new to running and the biggest run I did was like 6.20km and I only had like 20 running sessions so I have a chit ton to learn
I'll admit I was weak as fuk after the injury since I couldn't run for like a month and a half and started taking up smoking again which left a drastic effect on my endurance but I'm willing to fully kick it off so I can get this back on track but I need to know this chit is possible
Need all the help I can get here brahs, it's make or break at this point in my life because my employment in this industry is almost done and I'm on a deadline to meet by June and if I don't have the requirements the next career is looking for, it's going to suck big time..

Start small and build volume over time.
I jumped straight into 5-6k runs and my calves were giving me issues.
Have since swapped over a couch to 5k program which starts off with x time running, y time walking to get you fitter while managing your volume. Each week gets progressively harder. Tomorrow I'll do 3x5 mins running, 2.5m walking in between. Next week I think I'd similar but the 3rd run of the week is a non stop run for 25 odd minutes.

bro did not read
you are writing too much for such a simple thing. Just came back from shoulder surgery, heres my advice:
Nothing changed. If you ran before, you know how it works. Start slowly, running 3x one week, dont even time yourself. The next week, run every day. Then, every day, start taking your time, and try to beat the previous days time or at least make the same time.
You can throw 2 a days in there as well sometimes. Stop smoking. Don't smoke weed or ciggies, you dont need either one. Trust me you will feel 10x better than you do now.
