Week 3 of (my adapted) JuJu’s time-based magic plan

[TimeInNature]

I’ve adapted the magic plan to swap out the shorter run with my GoodGym session on a Tuesday - it usually is about the right time but in a few separate runs (run to meeting point, run to task, run back from task).

This morning was the long run of week 3 - so 45 minutes (as I couldn’t find a NRC guided run for 44 minutes). The day started with an early (for the weekend) alarm so we could take the dog down to the beach for a low tide walk before the sun came out. And then I went for a run straight after and before it got any hotter (was already 22 degrees when I got home before 9am).

My route varied from my plans as I chased the shade around - so more parks and gardens than seafront today. 45 minutes felt like a long time but I’d paced myself well and could run till the end. Not only that but I got to the end of the run at pretty much a perfect place for a 5 minute cool down walk home.

Feeling pleased with myself and grateful to my body for all the adapting it’s doing to allow me to keep progressing.

Ooh I could just jump into that water now! Looks so inviting 😎

Well done on your gym session and run and for your good pacing (I always found this tricky). Mixing things up keeps it interesting and varied.

Enjoy the rest of your training 🤗
