Wk6 R1

[Oor_P]

So I did my wk6 R1 with my dog, she was exhausted as I am 😂

Still I can’t seem to get the breathing technique in place as I felt I couldn’t get enough air when inhaled through my nose! What did I do wrong here?

Went a tad too fast maybe...

If you, ( and the dog), are exhausted, then slow down until your breath comes naturally. Don't overthink it

Well done though... both of you

I agree with olfloss your heart rate seems high so maybe try slowing down a bit. Also i think when we concentrate too much on breathing it isn't happening naturally if that makes sense . I do breath though my mouth sometimes if i feel i need to. Really i think at this point in the program its slowing down till you get used to longer times continuously running! Just relax & enjoy😊

[Oor_P Graduate in reply to Pc59]

Yes I agree that when I concentrate on the breathing I got lost in it all so will try not to think too much about the breathing. Yes I do breath through my mouth often

[Oor_P Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

I thought I didn’t went fast at all as I’m not in a good shape actually

[cathsykes]

Perhaps slow your pace to allow you to focus on breathing

Then once you've cracked it try speeding up again

[Oor_P Graduate in reply to cathsykes]

Yeah sounds like a plan so tomorrow will be run 2 and will do that

[Millsie-J Graduate]

Breathe through your mouth if it suits you. Also as others have said, slow down.
