Now that was a bit tough! I got straight out this morning, ignoring demands of coffee or at least a small banana from my shocked body. I laced up my trainers before my mind knew what was happening! I've been off for 11 days with a calf strain (which healed a few days ago) and have been making excuses about going for a run: it's raining, oops I just ate, aren't I doing enough already with yoga!? and more...
I put on week 5 run 3 as I thought 20 mins will be enough, didn't want to go straight back to 10k training, the shock may have been too much!!!
It was great to hear Laura again although I could feel how my stamina had slipped a bit. My breathing was ok but my legs felt heavy and like planks of wood for the first 10 mins. I was fine after that and went home did some yoga for an hour and finally got coffee (de -caf) and peanut butter on toast, aaahhhhh
Did I do too much? Ran nearly 2 miles in 20 minutes. Not bad I suppose, but have learnt it really is easy to slip back into not running. Yoga seems to be taking over a bit now, which isn't a bad thing, but want to stick with the thing I love best!!!!
Oh people smiling at me, what's going on, don't think I'll be 'high fiving' any time soon though
