Yikes I missed my alarm

3 Replies

What the heck, speedy breakfast, running kit gathered, and radio2 on sounds BOOM week 6 run 1 in the bag, it was nice to revisit the walk-run technique after the 20 min lung buster of week 5..... So roll on Wednesday.......

Drink, banana stretch and shower 👍

That's a new one for me Imc50, you describe run 3 of week 5 as a "lung buster ", glad you enjoyed run 1 of week 6, however, you have only one more run of the walk run technique with run 2 of week 6 before a 'lung buster"25 minutes run of week 6, perhaps the reason that 20 minute run was so hard is that you ran too fast, for run 3 of week 6, drink plenty of water the day before you run it and run it a little slower than you ran run 3 of week 5.

I’m glad you enjoyed your run. That one did me in!! Think it was the rest in between. I can’t eat before a run never mind quickly 😁
