W8 - done

[Rory0511]

I really thought on this holiday that I wouldn’t do much running ... surely lazing around the pool with a cocktail and a good book is more appealing. .... but i’ve been itching to get to the gym on my run days. Obsessed or what !

After the drama of breaking the 5k barrier on my previous run (thanks to a fast final 10 minutes), i managed to maintain a more even pace throughout on this one ... felt good and I had a healthy sweat on by the end.

Only 3 runs to go and I’m starting to read up on running life beyond C25K. Seems that having a strong core is key to going longer distances and avoiding back injuries so downloaded a few beginner work out plans and I think going to invest in some kettlebells.

W1R1 .... where I only managed to complete 6 of the 8 runs ... seems a long time ago ...

Lol.. i’m only 5 ft 8 and 11st 4. Must be the low centre of gravity

I’m almost a foot shorter and several stones heavier, and it sure ain’t working for me 😁
