Back out this morning with Nike ‘not motivated to run with headspace’ Also listened to a Run Pod podcast last night in an attempt to search for my mojo which appears to have escaped me over the last few days... As it’s my day off today I could run a little later to avoid the groups of ‘heads down reading phones’ school kids. Also nice to run in the daylight and be able to appreciate the autumn colours... & of course be aware of the trip hazards the dark mornings bring. Happy running everyone and once again thank you for being such a supportive group xx
Wk7 R2 in search of my mojo: Back out this... - Bridge to 10K
Wk7 R2 in search of my mojo
Running a bit later in the day during the winter months I'm finding really enjoyable as you say with all the colours to enjoy.Sounds like you had a good one today 👍
Week 7 run 2 on the time plan is 30 minutes I believe .How did it go ?
I like the NRC headspace runs with Andy P 😁👍
Enjoyed this morning and 30 minutes is a very comfortable time but I seem to have to massive mental block for anything over this time and the self doubts take hold... sure I will get there and reading others’ posts thing think the gremlins and negative thoughts are quite common just need to figure out a way of overcoming them. Xx
The pesky gremlins. Yes, we all have those but if you are out, you can defeat them.
Pace really is key for your doubts I think. If you stay at the same pace and try and run for longer you just burn yourself out.
When you go slower, you can run for longer .... enjoy it more ..... and beat those gremlins whilst also building up your stamina and aerobic fitness. Win win.
Well done, it sounds like a good run and the right NRC guided run for you today 😃 👍
Well done! Love those guided runs. 👍😊
I’m out looking for my mojo too Sunnytom so I’ve just started C25k again this morning…better the devil you know eh?!! I’m bet they just fancied a break when the clocks changed 🙄
Good on you. I’m so much better when I have a programme to work too... these dark mornings/nights not helping my motivation at all..
I know what you mean…I feel like I need something to work to too…I don’t mind the darker evenings it’s just making time for running & when the vacuumwins over me going for a run then there’s def a problem 🤣🙄
🙈oh dear... procrastination at its best.... no chance of me running in the evenings after work this time of year...
Sounds like a great run, i think your mojo will soon be caught and back with you
