Did W7 Run 3 this morning.
It was a battle.
The first W7 run went so well I was delighted, then the second was Ok but today I never did get into a proper rhythm, everything was hard work, and I couldn’t wait to hear I just had a minute left to run! It is still niggling at me hours later but my other half pointed out I had just run 3 x 25 minutes in one week when a couple of months ago I was cheering at running for a couple of minutes at a time!
So, Saturday is the start of W8..... 😳
You’re other half is wise... celebrate that progress. 28 and 25 won’t feel much different, and sometimes we get a tough run... sometimes there’s a reason (hydration, something we ate different, pace etc etc) and sometimes it’s nothing that we can see... usually a smoother run follows though. Having a tough run tests our mental strength... you got to the end, well done! Week 7 adds a lot to your weekly running, week 8 is a small step up from that... relax, you’re gonna be fine.
Thanks! I am sure it is all about mental strength. Far too easy to get it out of proportion when something doesn’t ‘work’.
Well done you! The long relaxed runs are here.. enjoy them and feel proud
‘Long relaxed runs’ - I hope so!
They are.. start slow and stay slow... and remember to up your strength and stamina work too on some of your rest days...The rest of you has to keep up with the legs
Your perseverance is to be admired!!! W7 done✅ well done! 👏
Thank you! I like the big tick in the box. Will aim for a star next week😉!
🤣
Well done for finishing. Hope you feel good knowing you have done 🙂
Thank you. Only bloody mindedness. Feeling better about the next run tomorrow.
You're doing great . To think this all started with 60 seconds runs . Well done you 😊😊
You are right, of course! All set for week 8 start tomorrow....
Bring it on W7!
