The Hare and the Snail

[Snail61]

This is my first post on this forum since graduating exactly 14 days ago. I saw one post showing a hare and tortoise run. I thought that's an interesting idea perhaps I could do something similar, so I did. I started out about 8am this morning with Laura, my coach, and stepping stones playing on my Walkman, 33 mins later I'm at the 5km mark and also at the end of the podcast. I then switch to C25k W5R3. The first 5 minutes of this podcast is the warm up, so instead of warming up I cool down by dropping my pace to 7.5min/km for the next 5minutes whilst I recover. Then It's of again on W5R3, sometime latter Laura's tells me I've done really well running for 20 minutes! Times3 Laura Times 3! The next bit of inspiration I took from this forum was from a lady showing a pic of a fried breakfast. I had the same washed down with a pint of tea, lovely!

Great stuff Snail61, that sounded fun! Not sure you should have Snail in the your user name though ..... 😅

that sounds just perfect! Lovely Laura, gawd bless her, Stepping Stones podcast, follwed by breakfast and a vat of tea. Life does not get any better does it.

Well done!! I'm glad you thought it was fun. That's how it should be.

Thank you and I also enjoyed running C25k W5R3 again, Laura was with me for my first ever one hour run. The breakfast went down well as well.

Love it!

I’m a tortoise and snail type of person 🐢🐌

...maybe it’s time to bite the bullet and try the stepping stones...I’ve always worried that it may be too fast for me... 🤷🏻‍♀️

I wonder if it was my “breakfast of champions”...I’ve posted a few! 😂 🤔😋

It may have been, did your husband cook it for you? That breakfast certainly looked great!

[Snail61 Graduate10 in reply to LottieMW]

PS Yes it was your breakfast I've found the post.

I’m very lucky 😋🤣🤣🤣

The tempo’s are very mixed. Deliberately so. I love them 😍
