Well first road run today plan was to run near where I live as car is in the garage. Plan was to run down a big hill and back up. Well what did I do? I went down way too fast. Normal pace is around 9-9.35. I did the first 1 1/2 k at 8.35 πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

You can guess what happened after that Heart rate went up to 170 😱and on the way back up after 22 minutes I had to stop and walk the rest.

Lesson learned for the second time do NOT go too fast for you. I did the Same at Park Run and went too fast on the first 2 km πŸ™„ but still managed to finish πŸ™‚

That hill is my nemesis and I never thought I’d ever run down never mind attempt back up. I will beat you one day and that’s a promise πŸ€“

Running uphill isn't easy but with lots of practice you can do it. 😊😊
