Week 2 complete!

TheTrainingTeacher profile image

Finished week 2 today. Was hard work and not as enjoyable as most of the other runs I've done but I think it has a lot to do with being exhausted by work and it was very windy and trying to snow! Completed the run though and felt good for doing it!

Great job... sometimes runs are tough and have to be enjoyed after the finish... but every run makes you a fitter, healthier, stronger runner.

Omg I can totally relate! Last time I was trying to run with a strong wind in my face pushing me back was terrible! But I figured if it's in my face on the way it will me giving me a push on the way back. Typically by the time I was on the return it disappeared.

It was perhaps my worst run as my new earphones kept falling out my ears (I usually have over ear ones) and I couldn't get an easy rhythm. But it's always a win, just being out there and even if you were to just walk because of the weather it would still flush you with endorphins and fresh air!

The only true fail is not getting off the couch at all!

I made myself carry on as I knew if I gave it a miss that one day I would struggle to get motivated again. No pain, no gain!
