Consolidation Run 3

[RunRunRun13]

I had already taken the dog for a 15,000 steps hike but quite fancied a lie in tomorrow so did my run at 5pm today. Wore a vest but as temperatures were warmish and I overheat I got home looking like a red cabbage. Had some chesty coughs when I finished so don’t know what all that’s about (maybe the heat or I’ve swallowed a fly) 😂 but done and off the couch. Don’t forget to put your clocks forward tonight ⏰

Are you wearing a running vest or just a normal vest top?

Hopefully the chesty coughs are just from the deep breathing while running. Or maybe you’re clearing out some pollen?

Well done on CR3 n enjoy your lie in! 😁

I wore an old running vest Jill which is too tight to be honest and won’t be wearing again but did the job today...didn’t have a running t-shirt so think that’s next on my list. Didn’t think of pollen, I literally haven’t stopped coughing and can hear a slight wheeze so maybe something’s disagreed with me. Have a lovely Saturday evening.

I need a proper running top too, been wearing cotton vest tops but need something proper now it’s warmer

Are you asthmatic? Could be the pollen plus deep breathing has triggered an asthma attack? Or maybe you’ve picked up a bug. Hope it eases off soon 🤞 Hope you have a great evening too, cough permitting

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to SeeJillRun]

Not asthmatic but got over a cold last week so maybe the remnants of that...feels better now thank you...dislodged it with food 😂

[SeeJillRun Graduate in reply to RunRunRun13]

Ah yes, that’ll be it then. Glad the food sorted it out 😂

Well done you.

Beautiful photo - was it your run today? I’m lucky enough to be running somewhere similar. I feel very fortunate to have it on my doorstep.

Thank you Delly-dot, yes pic was from my run today - I took it just after my warm up. Very lucky to have it close by too - just love the countryside, costs nothing and makes you happy 🦋🍂🌳🍂🦋

Well done for another successful run. That looks lovely!

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to Pianism]

Thank you, it was a lovely run and the sun was out which makes a change ☀️

Gorgeous place to run... I love a pine forest track, I do. I’ve also got a chest infection - not been able to run for eight days now... ☹️. I hope your’s doesn’t linger x x

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to Kertesz]

Very lovely run even though I tripped over a branch but should look where I’m going...I hope you feel better soon and can get out again for a run, I caught a cold last week so might just be the remnants of that 🏃‍♀️

How are you doing your consolidation runs? Is there another app to download or are you just timing yourself for 30 minutes?

[Circle_On_Legs Graduate in reply to Jlpacpetpsjpiap]

I use Endonondo which tells me intervals and 30 minutes or just repeat W9 for 3 more weeks

[Jlpacpetpsjpiap Graduate in reply to Circle_On_Legs]

Thank you! Just back from a Mother's Day meal out. Will have to force myself out tonight! 😂

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to Circle_On_Legs]

Will have a look at that app, thank you, I use Nike Run app at moment but suddenly stops even when locked (most probably user error) 😂

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to Jlpacpetpsjpiap]

I’m just doing 3 x 30 mins runs for 3 weeks - sometimes repeat Week 9 on C25K or use my Nike Run Club app 🏃‍♀️

Keep an eye on the "middle of Lidl", they do running gear every so often, picked up three running tops last week for £3.99 and was very impressed with how they performed this week !

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to dmb0058]

Thanks so much for the tip I’m going to pop into Lidl to have a look tomorrow - love a bargain 🏃‍♀️

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to dmb0058]

Thanks for the Lidl tip...just purchased vest and tshirt today ! 🏃‍♀️
