One of my biggest struggles in life is consistency. I embark on many things but lose interest after a while. Maybe it's boredom. I haven't quite figured it out. The one thing I seem to be engaging in effortlessly is running. That doesn't mean I don't struggle with the actual runs, I do. But I seem to have tapped into an inner resource that gets me up in the morning and keeps me going no matter what.
After W6R3 this morning I think I have cracked it.
1. No judgement. It's just me and the road. Not competing with anyone - not even myself. Just putting one foot infront of another until the coach says stop.
2. I have learnt to pace myself. I have developed a good rhythm. This explains why I struggle with the shorter runs that have breaks. I lose my rhythm.
So, to win don't judge yourself and keep your rhythm!
Happy running everyone!

Way to go. Those breakthroughs are important... we have great coaches, now you’re a great trainee for them. Pace is difficult to get right and takes time, well done. All running now for the next three weeks... love every run.
It's all thanks to this forum and folks like you encouraging people like me. Imagine what my life would be like if I had this kind of support for every endeavour - I'd be superwoman! 🏃♀️💃🏃♀️
