Motivate me. It’s run night and I want to sit in bed watching TV.

EDIT: Well that was horrific. Only 5k and I struggled the whole way. Definitely one of those runs. Still, 5k under the belt. Thanks guys!

I’d come for a run with you if I was closer and if it wasn’t my rest day. But it’s the thought that counts right?? 😍

Tasha99Graduate10 in reply toBluebirdrunner

Ok! Will do. Can’t til after 8 but I will 👌🏽

Sit in bed watching tv. It’s time you took a break. You’ve been pushing yourself for,weeks. You’ll run all the better for taking time out. Trust me, been there done that x

Flick don’t say that! 😂 I’ve got a race at your own pace to meet - 50 miles in July! I must go out tonight! Don’t say it’s ok to laze around 😂

in reply toTasha99

But it IS. It’s only one night, and if you feel like lazing, the chances are your body is asking for a rest. Listen to it. You are motivated enough to get out again tomorrow, and will probably run better for it. Sometimes pushing is counter productive and makes you stale. Don’t over train 😊

If I don’t go tonight I have to juggle childcare, and also I wouldn’t get a rest day in before Thursday which is run day and I have to go Thursday as need rest day Friday before ParkRun Saturday 😂 I’ve talked myself into it. Thanks 👌🏽😂

If I had seen the original post in time, I would have given you the mother of all motivational speeches, but I was watching Emmerdale and Holly City #rocknrolllifestyle, still you went out and got 5k in so well done ✅👏🏻💪🏃🏾‍♀️

Tasha99Graduate10 in reply toBerksrover

Thank you. Not sure why that was so hard! I did 10k last week easier than today’s 5k!

I think when you reach the end of the week, crash for however long you need, slept, recovered a bit, you will feel like leaping about in your running shoes again!! I suspect I speak for the entire profession (except the hyperactive ones).😂 Take care xx

Tasha99Graduate10 in reply toElfe5

He he he I don’t know any hyperactive teachers 😂 looking forward to running at my leisure for 6 weeks! Hope you’re well Xx

No neither do I! 😄

I’m ok - but unfortunately on the IC with a very sore knee - can’t believe it after all my looking forward to running over the summer. ☹️ Meanwhile I will have to cycle gently.
