Iβve not had the best day today Iβve been letting things get into my head I first went to the gym as it was heavy rain and tried my new trainers on the running track inside so I was going to do my run in there but I just couldnβt do it not because I was tired I just was maybe just over 10mins in and I just stopped and then I was in a really bad mood as I failed but not failed if you know what I mean it was so monotonous running around a track so I called it a day. But I sorted my head out and got my arse outside which is so much better I ran W9R2 I didnβt get as far as the other day but I think I must of fatigued myself a little by doing the run at the gym so now Iβve done it I feel so much better so Iβm going to the gym tomorrow and then do my graduation run on Sunday Iβm going to hydrate more and Iβm going to absolutely smash it πππ»ββοΈππππ
Iβve just ran W9R2 π: Iβve not had the best... - Couch to 5K
Iβve just ran W9R2 π
Well done you! Enjoy your graduation π run on Sunday, hope you have a lovely run in the great outdoors!
Yes I will thank you itβs so nice in the great outdoors πππ»ββοΈ
High Five for trying Kevtrev. I'm not surprised you didn't quite make it with the second effort - I think when you have a not so good day it's best to just put it down to experience, have a day's rest as usual and then off you go as if the bad day never happened and you'll smash it. You can do it, you will do it and you will be so pleased. Let us all know how you get on, and smile - it helps!
Forget about today Kev apart from the good part of the day when you ran OUTSIDE run 2 of week 9, yes, you are going to smash it outside when you run run 3 of week 9, your graduation run.
I know and I have Iβm going to be so pumped for my graduation run thanks Alan πππ»ββοΈ
That's the way to go Kev, get your all pumped up for your graduation run, but be careful not to go too fast.
Today my daughter Gillian printed out my barcode for any parkruns I may wish to run.
I just completed the Stepping stones podcasts with Laura and have marked in the calendar Saturday 13th July for my first full 5k Parkrun.
Until then I will train using that metromone pacer app with various steps per minute to run the 5k distance.
Well done just one to go good luck π
Well done for pushing through later on Kevtrev. We've all had those bad days and they are valuable to look back on once you push through them. Hope you smash it on Sunday. Best of luck!
Thank you Decker thatβs my plan lots of sleep lots of water and a few beers the night before but only a few as Iβve cut that down as well I canβt cut it right out as there are to many nice micro breweryβs and craft beers about not too. Iβm absolutely going to smash it on Sunday with a bit of hope the wind wonβt and the rain wonβt be too much not like I donβt like it I do it keeps me cool and I seem to run better with a bit of rain in my face happy running fella πππ»ββοΈπππππ
Haha just remember the beers will really counteract the water plan π You could always do the beers after you smash it. Or just play the odds π Either way good luck my friend!
Well done kevtrev! Great fighting spirit πͺπ»ππ» hoping to do my final run Sunday so weβll finish together π
well done Kevtrev, you sorted yoursellf out and did itπ good luck with sunday, you are a whisker off graduationπ
Well done Kevtrev. You beat the niggling gremlins and you completed your run. You star βοΈ. Now go chase that graduate badge on Sunday! π
Thank you Delly-dot I was going to reply last night but my eyes closed on me haha and was out like a light. And I did beat the gremlins and I did complete the run not my best but I did have the wind blowing at me and a little rain so considering I did pretty well as I already ran that day. Iβm going to prepare myself for Sunday and Iβm going to smash it and thank you for your kind words πππ»ββοΈπππ
But you did it!!! Enjoy your graduation Sunday run!!
Thank you Iβm going prepare and be ready for Sunday not like yesterday I did it but it wasnβt my best but saying that I did more than I should on the Friday as I already ran for 10 or more minutes as I didnβt look at the time when I started who knows how long I paused the app by mistake for how long not sure I was running? Anyway thatβs one of lifeβs things now I ran properly I felt so much better outside inside running never again π
Enjoy your graduation run! It's a great feeling. I grinned like a fool for hours after! π
