Another consolidation....

Not a bad run. I admit to choosing an easier flatter run again last night, hills just scare me. I'm going to take a couple of days off now ready for the festival of running 5k on Sunday.

Will spend some time today researching how best to prepare for a 5k race... what to eat & when, for example.

My wife started her C25K w3 last night, and I managed to complete my run, and jump straight into her warm up walk... so I kept her company. (I figure the walk/run cycles she is doing can act as an extended warm down for me when I join her...)

I guess I should be amazed that I can do a 5k, then do a week 3 run 1 immediately afterwards... it seemed easy, and I guess that shows just how amazingly far I have come?

This was my post from W3R2...… for comparison...

"I managed todays set, but my legs felt heavy, and my pace dropped even further than normal. I could not help myself, and I looked into what next week will bring, and I am now anxious that I am not going to make the extra 7 minutes of running... It seems a massive jump up after 1 week of 8 minutes and 2 weeks of 9... How do I tell myself that this will get easier when it feels so much harder today..."

The worry I felt about going a bit further the following week!
