I really can't stop the routine now...wish there was another app to keep me going!

So, graduated last Friday, ran 5k on Sunday (best pace ever even though I was super slow), and had a wee 30 minute slow consolidation run today. I'm really noticing a difference now in that it used to be the first 10 minutes was easy and now I reckon I was 20 minutes in before I started to tire. I'll do another couple of slow 30 minus runs and then start to mix it up a bit. How much fun is this?!

Have a look at the NIKE Run App - they seem to have quite a number of audio driven "fun" runs plus programmes for specific purposes. Certainly enough to mix it up during the consolidation phase of your running.

Itโ€™s great fun isnโ€™t it? ๐Ÿ˜.

You are doing great and will continue to love running as you carry on past the programme

Great consolidation work... itโ€™s staring to get more comfortable, and you felt tired but then recovered on the run for a strong finish. Keep having fun out there. If you try Nike โ€œjust a runโ€ is great for consolidation!

Yes, I agree with unm. Just a run on the Nike run app has been seeing me through my consolidation runs. The coach is much more chatty than MJ but o like having someone with me at 6:45 in the morning!
