Consolidation -W11R1 (PGW2) :-)

I completed my first week of consolidation by repeating the 3 x 30mins run times.

Yesterday, I opted to treat myself to a gait analysis at a local running shop and a colourful new pair of Brooks Ghost 11s became mine 😊.

Went for a leisurely run, this morning (W11R1) -new shoes on, sun shining. I set my distance for 5K (managed in 38mins including poo and pedestrian stops -for my canine running buddies 🐺🐺, not me -I hasten to add...). My feet, knees and spine seem to approve of the new footwear πŸ‘Ÿ.

Onwards to the rest of W11 (PGW2) πŸ˜†.

Good for you. Is there another app for post graduation of C25K? I have Brooks running shoes and love them.

There are bridge to 10k apps but not the same as this unfortunately

Ah thank you. I guess they use podcasts as it’s a little more complex working on building speed and technique etc.

...I'm using the 'Nike Run Club+' App (various guided runs available and ability to set either distance or time -all free). I've had a look at the 'Bridge to 10K' forum here and might try ' ju-ju's' '10 is the Magic Number' plan (8 weeks) 😊

I'm loving my Brooks so far.
