Post christmas 6k 🥵

[Peter44]

Went out today with my daughter, nice and sunny, after the storm last night 💨 decided to throw in some hills today, probably about 2k worth, which were quite hard 🥵 but got there, thought my running buddy might need to stop 🤣 but we kept going, 47.27 mins, 7.54/km ☺

Anyway, felt good, after all the xmas food/drink consumed! 🤣

Happy running everyone! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

That’s fantastic, and so fast, I ran 5k in about the same time this morning, I’m so impressed

Thanks, not really intentionaly upping the pace, must be getting stronger i guess, hope you had 🌞 for your run.

Weather was perfect thanks and I’m amazed that even with a bit of walking near the end and a detour for photos 5k took 47.09 mins my nice easy run is now faster than my fast out of breath count every minute run was a year ago, I love 5k and run 3 in the last 4 days 😀

[Peter44 Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

It's nice to do these runs, maybe not the hills!!! 🤣 and it is now comfortable, and enjoyable too, i guess all the km's are now building us up for these runs! ☺

Hills aren’t my favourite but the miles in our legs make them possible

Doing great- another 6k with hills too so that’s really good going- that will have burnt off lots of Xmas calories. 👍🏻🦌I did 5K yesterday- counting down the days... 😁

Thanks, bet you'll be itching to get out the door, was it jan 1st? At least you've got the treadmill, in the mean time. Calories, still cant find the scales! 🤣

Hills 😳 . Well done guys.

[Peter44 Graduate10 in reply to BaddieThePirate]

Wouldnt say that bit was enjoyable, but cant hide from them for ever! 🤣

7.5km with hills in 47 minutes? You two are definitely stronger than you think.

[Peter44 Graduate10 in reply to nowster]

Blimey, i wish!!! 🤣 no we did 6k in 47 mins, average pace 7.54/km, but must be getting stronger i guess! ☺

[Runforurlife Graduate10]

6k and hills, too! Nice one 💪🏻 Sure that will have helped burn those Christmas calories and good to get out too. It was a lovely sunny morning here but so many giant twigs and branches on paths, I felt like a leaping gazelle jumping over them (and into puddles)..hopefully burnt a few more calories 😂Hills really take it out of me, and those sneaky inclines too can be killers.. Need to do more I guess to up our fitness and endurance but my face when I finish an incline or hill = 😩

[Peter44 Graduate10 in reply to Runforurlife]

Yes, definately not so enjoyable! 🥵

[GailXrunning]
