Week 9 run 2

β€’13 Replies

Normality returns, the school's back from its hibernation and the house is quiet ( how noisy are teen-agers πŸ™‰.

Porridge and tea and a very threatening dark sky and foreboding weather forecast, best get out there..... Fast forward.. the rain never cometh, run number 26 and it's in the bag..... Aimed to slow my pace down but it's weird how we kinda fall into what's a comfortable pattern. Must try harder to slow up...

I told myself last year I was going to be fitter at 50 and with a little encouragement from Michael I'm getting there πŸ‘

I turned 50 last year, hoping to complete c25k before I hit 51! πŸ˜‚

But I am definitely fitter than I have been for years - lost over 6 stone 😊

Wow well done with the dieting, that's good willpower, c25k will be a breeze for you

No dieting, just completely changed my eating habits 😊

No willpower required, don't deny myself anything, just eat good fresh food 95% of the time, still little treats - life is for living 😊

in reply to Joanney69

That's a great outlook πŸ‘

Thursday morning rain or shine and maybe just maybe if I complete the at home to do list, a national trust park run near me on Saturday as a me reward!!!

If your body says it’s fine, it’s fine. If it starts to complain, slow down. Looking forward to that graduation post very soon ⭐️
