Tuesday rolled around again and I dragged my heavy legs down to Bushfield. My legs have only just got used to running 3 x a week and now I've added in gym sessions they are seriously crying. Come on little legs I'm only trying to make you strong.
Anyway, I headed out with Charlene & Roz to do a pretty standard 5 mile route. Thankfully after .5 of a mile my legs had stretched out and were feeling ok (thanks legs) and I was feeling strong. Unfortunately Charlene wasn't, a mile in she was ready to throw in the towel and walk back. After a bit of a pep talk (not sure when I became qualified in giving people pep talks on not giving up), a good old stretch, a quick massage and reassurance that if she needed to stop and walk we could do, we headed off.
I was so proud that she didn't give up and made it round despite her body telling her to stop. This is what I find the most difficult with running, my mind is so strong in trying to get me to stop. You would think 3 runs a week for 4 months it would of gotten used to it by now, but apparently not.
Miles: 5.19
Time: 1 hour 9 minutes (including stopping time for massaging etc)
All in all not to bad considering the stopping time etc, another good run and another 5 miles in the bank.
