So, week nine and run three, almost (intentionally) put run 'free' in there instead π
I'm not gonna lie, that run was hard work, a gentle reminder that it was only nine weeks ago I couldn't run for more than a minute.
Twenty minutes in my legs were just gone, back a few weeks to aching like they're either gonna fall off while I run or as soon as I stop, might as well keep going then.
First rugby training last night since before Christmas so I'm definitely putting my tired legs down to that π
I'm not hung up on distance yet, that's to build on, but the last kilometer run this morning took three minutes longer than the three kilometers before it. It didn't feel quite that slow to me but there is a short, sharp, steep uphill before my final leg back home which I really had to dig deep to get up.
We made it though. I gave the dog a good pat and congratulated her on finishing the couch to 5k program, she didn't seem that bothered π
Absolutely amazing program, thank you whoever devised and developed this, thank you to everyone on here for reading, supporting and sharing advice.
I might be the oldest one on the pitch (and still pretty slow), but I'm quietly confident I'm now one of the fittest ππ
Now left wondering what to title my next posts π€
