Consolidation Run 20 🏃‍♂️

3K 🎯

After concluding it was time for me to say goodbye 👋 to C25K+ Stamina and Stepping Stone ... I fear Speed has now reached the same fate ☹️

I’ve posted about struggling with the slower BPM’s in relation to my natural pace and my little legs recently.

Today I tried the Speed podcast again for my short run of the week for the Magic 10K Plan and made a conscious effort to apply all the previous advice offered.

The stats speak for themselves - I am going slower than the speed I know I am capable of. The podcast is also not quite long enough for the distance of the short run now that it goes from 3K up to 4K ....

I really want the short run to be my speed and/or interval attempt each week. So, question:

- does anyone know of pre-mixed interval playlists?

I know I can use interval apps but I really can not run off beat so I would prefer something similar to the Speed podcast but with better music, with someone who can count on beat (sorry Laura!) and that is a little bit longer?

Before everyone piles on - I am not out of breath, I can speak and I don’t feel like I’m pushing myself too much 😉 I’m also going to go slower for the longer distances (over 5K) as the programme progresses 🏃‍♂️

I’m going to try going back to Week 1 in C25K and run fast for the running parts and jog during the walking parts.

Oh, that sounds like an idea 💡 I might give that a go! Let me know how you get on distance wise 🤔

Will do! I’ll be trying it Tuesday or Wednesday. 👍 It was nowster’s suggestion, but I remember now that others have tried it.
