W6R3 was awesome 🙌

[Lapsedyogi]

Treadmill run but put the incline down from 4 to 1 and increased my speed. Did 3k which I’m pretty pleased about. And it was an easy run. Might try a bit faster on Wednesday.

Well done you! I did W6R3 on Thursday and did 3.3k hopefully get more used to 25mins non stop in week 7

Thanks! I’ve been running really slowly but I hadn’t realised I had the incline at 4 degrees. First run that wasn’t up hill all the way 😂

Yeah incline is no fun for us beginners

Well done! Sounds like you’ve got yourself sorted Lapsedyogi! 👏👏

I’ve yet to run on a treadmill (well, 20+ years ago maybe), and I’m wondering if I should join a gym as contingency for the winter weather? Reluctant to, as I love running outside - but if it snows or is icy, I’ll be gutted missing out! 😫

[Lapsedyogi Graduate in reply to cheekychipmunks]

I found the thought of running outside in my wee village just too daunting. I thought if i could just get a bit fitter, so I didn’t look like I’d run a marathon after 20 seconds, well then I think I’d quite like running outside. In the end I bought a treadmill that was on sale and it’s been fab. No excuses when it’s right there. It kinda winks at me on rest days 😂

There’s an idea. Might have to start looking, then one day ..... ‘ooops, where did that come from?’ when husband asks!! 😅

Great job... you got this... have fun in week 7, they’re all 25s so maybe up the pace in tiny slices if you’re thinking of upping it.

[Lapsedyogi Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Good advice. Thanks. I’d only up by 0.1mph I think. I’d worry about running out of steam.

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Lapsedyogi]

Indeed... it’s all about completing the runs, don’t jeopardise that for anything!

[Lapsedyogi Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Increased by 0.1mph and really noticed towards the end. But did it 😁 and did an extra .2km. Might stick at it for w7r2 though.
