W7R2 - whoop whoop

[Jogunlikely]

Back on the treadmill today (yawn) but it was enlightening... being dark outside the window in front of me acted as a mirror 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱

💡 my left shoulder is higher than my right

💡 I swivel my hips and torso, a lot! This may account for the muscle pain in my right pelvis.

💡my bra is not as supportive as I thought 🤣

So I spent much of my run focusing on posture. Straightening my arm swing to a more fwd back motion sorted the hip swivel and allowed me to even up my shoulders. Just goes to show how a little change can have such an effect on your body 🤔

I also used a metronome to figure out my steps per minute, in the hope I can use this to regulate my outdoor running. We'll find on Friday if it works Fyi 150 bpm

The actual run was much better than Monday, though I was clock watching the last 5 minutes ⏲ 👀.

Looking fwd to Friday and trying out a Nike guided run 👍

Hope you're all have a great week so far.

Happy running folks x

Hang on there one minute... what are you trying to do? A physio would have charged at least £50 for that analysis... they have to buy their children Christmas presents you know... the poor little tykes 😂. At least it sounds like the poor bra manufacturer’s kids will have better presents.

Ok, so great run and gait correction session! Enjoy Friday, hope the cadence is good.

Well done jogunlikely! Sounds like a really beneficial dreadmill session! Plenty of useful observations there! Great excuse to go bra shopping 🛍 Happy running on Friday!😀🏃‍♀️

Thanks. Hopefully it won't be raining. I'm a bit wimpy about getting wet 😂

Worryingly the bra is max control. It's not as if I have an ample bosom to keep control of either!

Hah once you’re wet you’re wet and it’s actually fine. We did one run in our waterproof running jackets...small print = shower proof and it was a downpour. But hey it wasn’t so bad after all, quite refreshing actually, made the hot shower afterwards A thing of bliss.

Maybe experiment with alternatives? Brands may differ?

[Katnap Graduate in reply to jiggles7]

Agree with Jogunlikely. I just allow myself to get wet. And enjoy the hot shower afterwards 😸

[Jogunlikely Graduate in reply to jiggles7]

Getting wet would be a good excuse for an alcoholic hot chocolate. There's toffee vodka in the cupboard 😋 Hmm I may end up rain dancing on Friday 😉

[jiggles7 Graduate in reply to Jogunlikely]

Sounds like a solid plan to me!!!

If you're looking for more Tim Minchin distractions - try the F# song.

[Jogunlikely Graduate in reply to Katnap]

I shall educate myself further over the next few days x I suspect I may find some mildly offensive but much rather amusing xx

[Katnap Graduate in reply to Jogunlikely]

There's no swearing in F#. Prejudice also no swearing.

Sounds like you had a very productive session on the dreadmill 😉 Hope your all sorted for Friday. Happy running 👍🏻

That sounds great Jog, you could charge for that service! Great that your back at it again, let us know if it makes a difference to your running form when you hit the streets again, sounds good. 👍

I’d quite like to see how much of a muppet I look when running... I’ll give you a tenner to have a go? I’d want one of those alcoholic hot chocolates thrown in too, mind you... 😁
