Wk1 run 2

Heya everyone! Completed my second run yesterday but forgot to leave a days rest. It was bitterly cold but I soon warmed up. This run seemed harder than the first. And I noticed I went slightly further than day 1

I was literally like a robot this morning getting up for work.

I have also missed my hot yoga class as my satnav sent me to a field and I left work late so I couldn’t get their on time.

Really craved the me time today. I’m hoping wk1 run 3 will occur tomorrow and I will have a much more positive day!

Argh!

Well done, but rest days are crucial, even at the early stages.

This guide explains a lot about the plan healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

Keep it up.

Glad that you made a start. It's a fab programme and should be great to do alongside your yoga.

Slow and steady. Have fun!

Well done for starting the plan Aimzleigh...its great and does work. It will get you safely and injury free running for 30 minutes...

Good luck with Wk1 R3😊xx

Remember your rest days, (non-run days) you can do other exercise or go for a walk, just not run...
