Ju-Ju-‘s Magic 10K Plan - Week 6

5K 🎯

I had an awful nights sleep last night, awake every hour or so 😴 so this morning I couldn’t focus my brain to choose a playlist for my run 🏃‍♂️ I was undecided on my goals and therefore couldn’t decide on the soundtrack!

I thought that’s it’s been a fair while since I’ve heard Laura’s voice! And I could really do with an empowering ear worm today to push me through - virtual company but company nonetheless!

So I opted for the C25K Week 9 podcast. Thinking it would be good to compare and contrast my progress since graduating at the end of July when I hit 5K in 30mins.

A chilled run - not pushing for PB’s as this is a recovery run. But I’m super happy that I’ve shaved over 2 whole minutes off my graduation time! Not at all bad for a medium effort jog! Can’t help but compare how my body feels after the run now compared to July - such a positive difference! 🏃‍♂️

Now, my shins are a bit sore today so I’m going to reward myself with two consecutive days rest before attempting the 9K run to finish the week.

Happy running all! 🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️

Good run for you again 😁👍

Hope the shins are ok !

Hope Laura is keeping well 😂

Thanks Instructor57 🙏🏻 I’ve had a steaming hot bath and massaged the shins - deep tissue with the thumbs right in there, from ankle to the knee (towards the heart) along where the muscle meets the bone - ouchy! 😣 Then iced them both for a good 30 minutes. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 they’ll be alright in a few days - prevention is better than cure!

Ah - so nice to hear you and Laura are back together again after your extended break 😁

Good running - for a poor nights sleep.👍 Alas, that's usual for me these days.

I hope the shins aren't too achey

Thanks Birdlady64 🙏🏻 We were reunited briefly but I’m still not sure of her music choice 🤭

Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 we can get a decent nights sleep again soon 😴
