My second run with this group and a bigger turnout tonight after last week’s rain. Oh, but it is a faff to have to drive somewhere to run and make sure I’ve got everything with me that I need - drink, sun visor, towel, mobile, watch, sports glasses!
This run can only loosely be called Jeffing, I think! There was another newcomer tonight who asked the same question I did about what ratio we would be using. It’s much more casual than that - and this time I walked much less during the first half of the run. We seem to run faster at the start (which is what you would expect for Jeffing) and I’m not used to that, it makes the Toxic Ten worse, but what I get from these runs is far more important! Somewhere different to run and company. Lara, who is the run leader, is very encouraging and makes sure that no-one is left behind. Part of the route is through the woods and it was just perfect. Definitely could see myself getting into trail running, who would have thought it! 😊
It was a warm tonight but I think I’m getting used to the warmer temperatures of running in the evening. It’s so good to be running with others, although for the last third of the run I was pushing myself a bit and couldn’t talk much 🤣
I will probably do a few more sessions with this lovely group. It’s all helping with my overall fitness, but my plan is to eventually join one of the continuous running groups when I think I’ll be able to keep up with them!
This week we covered 4K in about 35 minutes so slightly faster than last week. Happy with that 😊
Jeffing seems to be the way to go!
