Run | Number 21 & 22

Thursday 21st:

I managed to make it to Bushfield even though I really didn’t want to go due to my hacking cough. We had a slow run which felt good but I really just couldn’t push myself due to my cold. We managed 3.42 miles in 46.53 minutes. Pretty slow, but still an improvement on my last 5k time so always a good sign.
I decided to let myself have the weekend off to recover, I managed to squeeze in a kettle bell workout on Sunday morning, which made me feel good and my muscles didn’t ache too much the next day.
Tuesday 26th:

Back to Bushfield again and I was feeling good. After having a rest weekend I was feeling pumped and ready to go. I really need to invest in a Garmin as map my run is really not very accurate let alone consistent. We ran the same round as the week before but pushed ourselves further than before. When returning to Bushfield map my run told me I ran nearly .5 mile left L WHHHYYYY????
Oh well…4.87 miles in 1 hr 4 mins. Not my fastest but I’m pretty sure it was further than that. I really don’t want my phone app to trick me into thinking I’m doing further than I actually am.

On Thursday I want to get another solid 5 miles in, and try to reduce my time slightly. At the weekend I am going to attempt 7 miles at a really slow pace. I might try and do this as a 4 min run/1 min walk, as I don’t think I’m fully ready to progress up to 7 without stopping yet.
