Check in on ju-ju’s magic plan

Just back from second 8k and completing week 5. Have to say first time that knees are sore.

Really pleased as was able to get 4 shorter runs done on holiday in Spain with longer run just before and straight after I got back. Holiday was a revelation as I was forced to run outside - now I am a convert.

Did all my running to date on treadmill which I liked but now would rather be outside, other than I find doing intervals easier and better still on treadmill. Also now go to parkrun on Saturdays - which I find really fun for a change.

Not sure about 9k and 10k but then every time I run I always start out thinking 🤔 today I might not make it?!?

Anyway treated myself to great late breakfast out of porridge with all the trimmings and cappuccino!!!

Well done keeping going on holiday and great running in the 8k. Careful with the knees, take an extra rest day if you need it.

Sometimes I don’t make my target distance, but there’s always another run so I’ve stopped thinking about that extra km or mile until it arrives.

Happy running, especially when followed by a well earned breakfast.
