Silly title because half hour is the same as it always is, no faster no slower .I'm taking a slow return though and back to some of my early run paces, 5 min warm up, 20 min run, 5 min cool down.
Thanks to Jools2020 I now know how to create my own workout and send it to my watch.
The warm up walk was uneventful and I managed to cross the 2 roads needed before setting off at a ridiculously slow run, I've felt a bit embarrassed running this slow and imagine people in cars going by thinking....look at that old girl, so slow, don't know why she bothers.....but I'm protecting my eye and doing something I love.
Up and over the railway bridge, I'd wondered if my heartrate would go above my target of 120-130 but it didn't go near. Tootled down the other side and began to feel the rhythm of the run.
A van wanted to turn right into a driveway but was waiting for me to cross so I sped up a bit thinking that was thoughtful of him, whoops, had to slow right down to slow my heart again.
Turned into the industrial estate, so tempting to run round the circle but too far for today so turned at about the halfway point. Steadily ran home. The temperature has risen to a balmy 5 degrees but the wind is picking up and feels icy.
And home! Average heartrate 120, ran the whole 20 minutes, will increase this by 5 minutes a week.
I heard a good saying this morning. " believe what you can do or believe what you can't do. They are both right".
I believe I can run a half marathon distance and will build up slowly so I run all or most of it.
What do you believe?
Run happy or rest well. 😁
Photo is from my walk the other day, looking towards Brighton, one day I will run there, it's not that far 🤣
You CAN run TOO slow!
