Consolidation run 7

[killersblue]

Easier this morning than my last run in the heat but still hard. I am managing 5k but gone are the days when I was getting to 30 mins and saying “I could have done more” 🙄. No more - now I am struggling but I’m getting there somehow.

I still live in hope that this gets easier the more I do it 🤗🌻

It will get easier the more you do, honestly. Every run adds stamina and strength to your running body and one day you’ll be on a run and suddenly think, “oh that feels easier! What just happened?” And what “just” happened is all those runs and miles beforehand paid a dividend at last.

You’re doing brilliantly, keep it up 🙂

Have you tried the Nike run app? They are very chatty and take your mind off the running!! Also are you on strava? If so do join us lockdown grads- we are all in this together 😀 strava.com/clubs/lockdownc2...

Yes I have listened to one but I found Coach Bennett talked a bit too much and irritated me 🙄 I like a bit of encouragement and handholding but not constant 🤗

And I am in the Strava lockdown group and I am enjoying using Strava and some of their challenges 👍
