Hi there and welcome to the second week of the new quest. So as we move to the colder end of the year with darker days and beautiful autumnal colours let's embrace the opportunities it brings and set some new goals for the month.
What the quest is:-
The quest takes one month . You can join any time within those weeks.
The main aim of the quest is to help you find a focus or goal that you would like to achieve by the end of the Quest period.
I ask that you will be a graduate to join the quest. The main reason I ask this is that while you are doing the program your plan is very structured so I wouldn't want the quest to interfere with that.
Most popular goals are:-
To run three times a week
To slowly increase distance
To train for a specific race
To add In Stretch and strength exercises
As you can see they are personal to yourself and it's totally your own choice.
Every week I will pin a new post where all the members of the quest can talk about how things are going.
So if you wanted to join all you have to do is put:
I would like to join the quest, or count me in and then I would like to. ..............
Your name will then be added to the top post and every week your name will be in the quest until the end.
At the end there will be a certified cate you can download to keep.
Wishing you a happy healthy week

My quest was to work towards 10k, but I got lost on what was supposed to be an 8k run today, and ended up doing 10.6k. Not sure if that makes me a 10k graduate , or if you'll tell me to go back and do it properly, neaten my handwriting and follow instructions. So, I guess my new goal is to work at it some more. ๐
I always complete the hour at each speed before moving on, then run 20 minutes or so at that speed and let it roll over to then next one. So today I ran 20 minutes at 166 bpm then continued running through the next intro and did another 20 minutes at 168 bpm.
Brrr, it was cold. I kept my gloves and headband the whole time and for the first time I can remember I was not sweaty at the end. My thighs and arms were quite chilled when I got home, although my core, feet and lower legs were quite comfortable. Time to dig out my Aldi cycling jacket I think - at least that has pockets if I need to discard hat, gloves, etc.
So my quest is to complete 168bpm before the end of the month. I build up to the hour with 2 runs a week, plus a parkrun (which is generally about 168 anyway!)
After my shower I then went online to buy some more Audiofuel mp3 downloads - Run Free and the more ambitious Run Wild. So that is another 4 hours to go at when I finish Polyrunner.
