Rookie mistake πŸ₯“

β€’10 Replies

Ok, today I made a big rookie mistake. I ate a bacon and egg sandwich (white bread 😩) and went for a run an hour and a half later πŸ™ˆ

Yuk!

Made way way through W6R3 feeling ropey from the bacon taste and washing machine tummy.

Lesson learnt the hard way.

I’m looking forward to week 8-really enjoying my slow jogging now πŸƒπŸ½β€β™€οΈ

That sandwich would be so much better just after the run! Minus the bacon it’s a pretty regular post run thing for me.

Great job getting through the run... and good learning for next time out.

I really ought to have known better!!! I can’t handle bacon and have just asked my family not to let me eat it again πŸ˜‚

We learn all the time. I think if you eat that again you would have to leave about 3 hours. You still ran for 25 minutes non stop that's brilliant. Well done you 😊

Yup, cup of tea and at most a banana is enough for me without wearing it during the run πŸ₯΄
