Hiya,
After my 14K (2h) on Saturday, I did a slow recovery 3K today. Long since I did such a short run, felt a bit useless to dress up for such a distance. But I did it nevertheless.
Am thinking to do a 5K on Wednesday and then take rest until Saturday / Sunday when I will try for my first 10 miles.
Cheers, Evy
Nice short run for you today Evy, like you I will run a 5K on Wednesday but only another 5K, not 10 miles on Saturday.
A shorter recovery run is good, and sounds like you have a great plan
Thanks!
I still dress up for my 3km runs.
Well done Evy, I enjoy recovery runs! There’s no pressure and we can just pootle along 😁😁😁.
It was hard not to go faster, my second km was fast but I was able to slow down in my third again.
What a great way to start a post. "After my 14k......". Just brilliant 😀
Good luck with your 10 miles Evy 👍
Here hoping next week your post will read "After my 10 miles ..." 🤞🙂
If my 10 miles happens (big if), I will take a week off from running. Give myself a short rest 😉
Always nice to do a short recovery run , nice and gentle with no pressure or targets .😁👍
True ☺
Nice wee 3 km run for you. I dress up leggings etc even on my walks too hot in jeans. Good luck on your 10 miles
That sounds like a good plan for a strong and confident runner - congratulations on all that you have achieved so far. I think we will soon be reading of your completed 10 miles and I wish you another great run. No advice needed as you seem to have a realistic, sensible, winning approach - best wishes ☺️.
Thanks! 😊
Great short run to recover. Looking forward to next weeks 10 mile post. Good luck take care and enjoy.
I think 3K runs have got a bad press. Once I get to doing a longer run at the weekend I will force myself to go less than 4K. Good thinking Evy.
I indeed never do 3K. A short week run is for me 5K. But after a long (long) run it can be good to keep it short for a run.
Magic 10 - W2R2 - 3K
A new stage of recovery
