and i'm feeling good

[tiggs1]

I believe this sums up my 8km run today... 'it's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life, for me, and I'm feeling good'. Without a doubt the gym work and swimming are helping with my runs, my legs feel strong, my heart rate is steady (97% of run in zone 3) and my breathing is happening without effort. I may be slow (7mins/km) but I am happy and I am loving the new me

This week is going to be finished with my 4km run on Thurs night and my 5km run on Saturday at Parkrun!

Happy running people

Congratulations on your 8k run you sound as if you enjoyed it. 😊😊👏👏

I REALLY enjoyed it. Being able to breathe steady and having confidence in my legs made a massive difference

Great effort there, fantastic HR I’m in zones 4 and 5 for that speed, mind you I’ve been in zone 5 pulling carpet shampoo round house today. Glad you are enjoying your runs

[tiggs1 Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

Thank you Are you sure you should be pulling carpets when you are unwell? You need to take care of yourself x

[Grannyhugs Graduate10 in reply to tiggs1]

I know I know, always do to much. Viewings have started for the house so carpets need cleaned. Hopefully get 4k slow slow slow run tomorrow

Well done tiggs1! Love that song and it's so apt!

[NewRunner4 Graduate10]

That sounds like the perfect run and you sound like you are on cloud 9. Enjoy the rest of the week!
