Fabulous450’s Recovery Run!! 🏃🏽‍♀️❤️

[Fabulous450]

Hi Runners!!

I hope you’re all having great running adventures. I’ve been off the path for a couple of weeks because I’ve had to focus on other things. I’ve kept going with daily HITT as consolation and not wanting to lose fitness (though losing weight would have been nice 🙄😂)! Still...all in all, I’m feeling good.

I had my first long journey on Public Transport since lockdown on Tuesday and I was struck by how claustrophobic it is to wear a mask for such long periods of time....And how odd it feels not to be able to see people smile 😯. It takes some getting used to. I’d have settle for a couple of frowns! Though eyebrows are ok for that, I hear! 😂

So...this mornings daily HITT was aborted. Out to run 🏃🏽‍♀️ ....green space 🌳 and no mask!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 20 mins and an absolutely brilliant recovery run in the fresh air!! Dial for the day set to ‘great’! 🤩🤩

I hope to get back to regular runs soon, but for now I’m just going to keep moving in any way that I can.

Happy running Runners! ❤️

Great job... and dial set to the right place.

I’m pleased that I don’t have to use public transport at the moment, I can only just put up with my buff up for a quick visit to a shop.

I guess we'll all have to get used to wearing face coverings for a while longer!

[Fabulous450 in reply to Katnap]

Yes it looks that way. Happy to wear it, but because I had to travel quite far, it was on for most of the day. 😁❤️

Anything longer than an hour and it feels oppressive. After 2 hours you kinda start to live with it.

Hope your on the road to recovery and alls going well now ! Well done on the HITT work out. There’s some real gruelling workouts out there 😓

Wearing a mask on public transport was kinda weird at the start I found and wondered how I would fair breathing !! Then someone said to me “for all you k know, people are probably just sticking their tongue out at you haha “

Happy running days ! 😜

Thanks so much Mark1909! 😃

The HITT is not one of those long hard ones, I can assure you! 🤣! It’s just something that takes 15 minutes and I do as part of my daily morning routine now.

I’m too slow to fit in anything longer. That sort of wakes me up and gets me feeling ready for the rest of the day!! 😂

It was hard at first though, so progress has been made . ❤️

[Mark1909 in reply to Fabulous450]

Ah that’s great stuff !! ❤️👍👍. I dare say that 15 mins is probably better than trying a long gruelling session. I’ve done it myself with resistance work and I have felt totally mullered all day 😬 - so now I just go to I know I have worked hard and happy with what I have done instead of over training. 😀

[Fabulous450 in reply to Mark1909]

Yes...I’m a big fan of not pushing to hard!! I find that keeps me on track so much better! 😉❤️
