1 min run, April fools?

[limu_mu]

Went on the Nike app earlier today for my first fartlek run and came across this post, must be an April fool joke? (Screenshot was taken now)

Looking forward to the new month of April although the weather person predicts that snow is on its way, hopefully, that is a prank too.

My first fartlek was uncomfortable but I guess that's how it should be...have spent the last few months increasing distance and seen improvements, so it felt like a good time to play with speed.

Anyway, happy holidays to you and your loved ones.

A one minute run is run 1 of week 1 of C25K.

Your right, that was hard less than six months ago... 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️ .

Was it an April fool? i read that where we run was going to start charging to use the trails, was getting very cross until a comment mentioned the date

[limu_mu Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

It seems it's been around for a while...

[H4CS Graduate10]

No it was there at least yesterday as someone else was chatting about it, have you listened to it? Every run has a purpose or so they say

[limu_mu Graduate10 in reply to H4CS]

Yeah, it seems to be the case and every run as it's purpose. Time to get my brain clogs in gear.

[limu_mu Graduate10 in reply to limu_mu]

No, not yet listened to it.

[limu_mu Graduate10 in reply to limu_mu]

🤣 have listened to it now.

As for the fartleks, I don't think they should be very uncomfortable. At least, that is how I read / thought about it. Just speeding up your pace a bit from this lantern pole until that tree. But speeding up means going a bit faster than normal, not running flat out. You should enjoy it, while it stresses your body a bit.

[limu_mu Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Yeah Hidden true story, tbh I didn't expect it to be that... and then the request for a 11/10 got me quite muddled 😖. If I had to be frank it's too soon to be doing fartlek.

Hope you found your running mojo again!

🏃‍♀️

Haha! 🤣 I just listened to this. So funny! It's a speeded up version of one of coach Bennett's other runs. What a hoot!😂

I checked it out after your post and 😂
