Bit behind with my training plan...

...but not for want of trying.

Bella Dogga is feeling a lot better and the vet has even said she can come out on gentle runs with me again, but we'll have to work up to it (seeing she's currently only on half an hour very gentle strolling twice a day). And because she has developed a heart murmur she needs to be watched very carefully for signs of deterioration.

Felt she was well enough for me to leave last night so I harnessed up my daughter's beagle and off we went. We both ran better than we did at the weekend, probably because we both knew exactly where Bella was ๐Ÿ™‚

Took the route known locally as Five Gates on the way home, and really wished I'd taken my phone with me because the views were really beautiful in the evening light.

Aw poor Bella โ˜น๏ธ but it's good that you're still able to run with another doggy ๐Ÿ™‚

Don't worry about the plan. I don't think I've ever been able to stick to one completely for one reason or another. You'll get there in the end.

I did get to the end of the 5k-10K plan that I was on before - which basically took me to running for an hour with a 5 minute walk at each end of it. I really want to get to an actual 10K though. Not least of all because I'm due to do the Beachy Head 10K at the end of October ๐Ÿ˜€.

She is enjoying her gentle strolls ๐Ÿ™‚ Very eager to go out for them, think she is wondering why we aren't going to our usual places.

What plan are you following?

A MapMyFitness generated one. I quite like it, but it comes up with some very odd durations for runs.
