C25k week 6 run 1 revisited 😊

[Instructor57]

I have been making a gentle comeback from illness/s

My last few runs have been around 2 to 2.5k and around 17 to 20 mins workout time , some with intervals and some without

I have been looking at how this compared to the C25K runs and decided that they correspond nicely to week 6 run 1.

So today, that is what I decided to do .

I also decided to do it on my treadmill.

And It was nice to know that Laura my coach hadn't abandoned me 😊

This run felt perfect for where I am currently.

And I may well do week 6 run 2 next time ! 😊

well done! I really enjoy coming back to ct5k after illness or injury, it’s like a safety net/comfort blanket listening to the familiar voice of positivity (just what we need). 😉

[Instructor57 Graduate10 in reply to Dendev75]

Thank you !Yes it's good to come back to it and as you say it's like a comfort blanket 😊

[Frizzbomb67 Graduate10]

Good old Laura. Say hi from me 😂. Glad the come back is going well 👍🏻

[Instructor57 Graduate10 in reply to Frizzbomb67]

Yes it was good to hear her again 😁

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10]

Good run for you Ian on the treadmill, Laura will never abandon anyone, it would be very nice if you run, run 2 of week 6 next time either on the treadmill or outside. 👍🏃🏾

[Instructor57 Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Thanks Alan , and yes , I'll probably do run 2 next, hopefully outside 😊👍

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Instructor57]

The weather forecast is for dryer but colder weather over the next few days, next Wednesday I am going to gradually increase by 1K a week to run 10K by the end of March, if there is a Quest post, that's what mine will be. 😊 🏃🏾

[Instructor57 Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Yes it will be a little cooler.I'm sure you'll be back at 10k then no problem.

And yes, I will be hosting the next quest 😊

[Frenc Graduate10 60minGraduate]

Well done Ian! Week 6 run 1 sounds like a good place to be 😁. It’s good to know the C25K coaches never abandon us!

[Instructor57 Graduate10 in reply to Frenc]

Thanks Kate , and yes it was quite comforting to hear Laura's encouragement again 😊

[Birdlady64 Graduate10]

You can't go wrong with C25K can you, although I was a Michael Johnson baby. When I redid c25k last year I was gutted to discover he wasn't a coach on the app any longer.But Laura will do you just fine. Good luck for the next run- inside or outside

[Instructor57 Graduate10 in reply to Birdlady64]

Thanks Diane , it was good to have Laura's support again today , I think the next one will be outside 🙂

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate]

That's great, building through the programme is a good way, it's been a rotten winter for illness hasn't it?

[Instructor57 Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

I seem to have just had one thing after another but , yes, I'll get back eventually 🤞

[CBDB Graduate10]

Fab! I’m increasingly becoming envious of treadmill runners. So it’s great to read reports using them.

I like the look of manual, curved treadmills . What kind of treadmill are you using?

[Instructor57 Graduate10 in reply to CBDB]

Yes, I bought it last year just so I could run if the weather was bad 😃I definitely prefer outside running but it certainly serves a purpose.

This is the one I have .
