6 months in....

Today is my 6 month anniversary on the Nike app.

I remember when I decided it would be good to learn how to run. I downloaded it and attempted 20mins.πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚ I think I ran for 50 secs and walked the rest; then I stopped running. Luckily -a a few months later, I found the C25k app, and it was just the best! Every week was a step closer to being able to run better and longer. πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

It was only in week 8 when I began to record my run, but the 6-month badge is a nice touch. Does this mean I can start running daily?

Today run was at 6.20 am, a nice 5K in the neighbourhood down to the park, up the hill, and I thought I might try a new road...I discovered a tennis club I didn't know existed! πŸ€”Oh, the things that we discover on our runs! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Happy running πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

It is, for several months I couldn't πŸƒπŸΎ run on some parts of my running route because it was flooded, recently with the dryer but colder weather I have been running on that part as it is no longer flooded.Tomorrow I intend to go a 10K 🚢 walk before lunch and after that I will go for the first time this year a short 🚲 bike ride. 😊

Your day sounds epic, so glad your running route surfaced- albeit in the colder weather! 10k and a bike ride, your living life to the full AlMorr sending β˜€οΈβ˜€οΈπŸŒ€οΈ

Rather than crash starting running every single day, experiment with running a pair of days in one week (short, easy runs), with the other runs in the week being every other day, and see how you feel at the end of the week.

True story, yeah am thinking of cutting a run shorter so 2.5 on consecutive days, tbh I think I would be flawed if I run the full 7 days.

Happy runniversary to you. Run every day can be achieved at 6 months if they are short runs and you stop if your body tells you to, keep running, be happy

Thank you so much SueAppleRun - yes shorter runs seems like the best way to go! Hope you are enjoying the first holiday of May!🌳

We are thanks, we are just going for a short easy run because our colds are hanging on a bit, we are doing nike run club guided runs and instead of feeling it wasn’t far we get to the end all enthused to go again soon Have a lovely day
