Sea Sea Seasiders

So I’m supposed to be resting my foot but it’s a lovely day and I just wanted to get out so I downloaded NRC and selected a 30 min run to try the app out. My intention was a nice gentle pace keeping my heart below 150bmp.

Nice warm up and 5 min walk and then started the gentle run with my inspiring new coach. Brilliant!

I went a different route and headed for the sea. I stopped to take a picture and then headed off again. The coach wasn’t talking to me anymore so I was just jogging and listening to music enjoying being out. I stopped to take another pic and realised the app had paused, oops. Not to worry I was feeling great so I just started it again and carried on.

I ended up running 3.8 miles with an average of 149bmp and I feel great 😊

Well done . Lovely scenery . It’s hard to get your bpm down . I am doing that just now running slow. Trying to run at 8.35m/k to 9m/k but hard and sometimes heart rate still high. I can run 5 km and 1 x10 km but heart rate usually high so am going to concentrate on going slower to try and get down 30!mins twice weekly and probably 5 km weekend but not going to worry over time. A step backward for me but back and feet playing up so maybe more sensible and felt a lot easier breathing going at that pace “slow jogging” . 🏃🏼🤗

I’ve been doing the same run over and over again and really wanted to go by the sea so that is what made it for me 😀

Running slower was brilliant, I didn’t feel exhausted even though I ran further in distance and longer in time which made me enjoy it more 👍🏻

Enjoy it Doris, you’ve done really well as it is 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Well done GigglyBFC 👍 I love the NRC App, Coach Bennett is good company when your out on a run....unless you pause him and he’s not good at all then 😂

Indeed, it’s my first time using NRC. Well that’s my excuse anyway 🤣
