Friday Morning Run - What a cafuffle! πŸ€ͺ

Morning Runners!!

I decided that I needed to wake up and get out early to get this run in, as I’m going to be away until Sunday and will be running again when I’m back. That would fit into my running routine very nicely. 😊

Today was 3 x 1000 mtr speed running. With 1:45 rest! (I was paid close attention to the rest bit before starting this time! Getting wiser!! πŸ€“πŸ˜‰)!

1st 1000 mtr great! Second one, after checking it had paused at 800 mtrs. No idea how long for, so pressed resume, but it seemed to be starting again distance wise and I thought no way can I just do another 1000 mtrs at speed, so I paused again to have the 1:45 rest and it started again from 0, so I was in a right tizzy, trying to work out what I was meant to be doing here!! I spent a bit of time fiddling and carrying on and then I had a overall time and average pace chip in! 😫 What is going on? πŸ™„ So stopped again for my second 1:45 rest.

Very happy that my final 1000mtrs went without a hitch!! πŸ™ŒπŸ½πŸ™ŒπŸ½πŸ™ŒπŸ½πŸ˜³! So in the end when I checked, I’d actually done just over the 3.k at 7:01 average pace overall, 1 run at 1k, then about 6 start and stops totally around 1k (weirdly) and then the final β€˜I know what I’m doing......finally’ 1k! πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

Well, that felt a bit crazy, but it’s in the bag!! πŸ‘œ That’s me until Sunday!! πŸ˜‰

Have great runs!! ❀️

That’s why I prefer a guided run! I have to keep the phone in hand and I’ve probably pressed pause by accident. 😳❀️

Really? Thank you! I still think I’m slow. It will be interesting to see how I do on my next long run. ❀️

I’ve got a bum bag Myrar, but unless I’m doing something wrong, I have to check my distance and pause for the rest time otherwise it just lets you run on. That bit I don’t like. Maybe I should contact the App support to see if I’m doing something wrong.
