First quarantine run

[Bluecat9]

So not allowed out even for essential shopping, but I have taken my living room walk to the next level. I made a start on attempting week 2 again this morning. Managed half hour brisk walking with a couple of 90 second jogging on the spot sessions before my legs shouted a big ouch at me. Tuesday I’ll aim for 3 jogging on the spot sessions. Barefoot jogging is a new experience to say the least but incredible comfortable strangely.

Happy running. Stay safe 😊

Go go Girl 👧 Try with your trainers 👟 on. Get you ready for running outside.

I was thinking I might be better with the trainers on, better on the knees than just the rug under barefoot lol

Genius!

[Bluecat9 in reply to CobbleRunner]

Thank you. I’ve been walking aimlessly up and down the living room for the last week, getting my step count up then thought why not jog on the spot. Why not restart the couch to 5k while I’m at it 🤷🏻‍♀️

It really is a fabulous idea! I’m worried that if not everyone adheres to social distancing we won’t be able to take our daily exercise but you have the solution! Thank you

[Bluecat9 in reply to CobbleRunner]

You’re welcome CobbleRunner. Happy running whether indoors or outdoors 😊

Running on the spot will work your muscles differently, as will being barefoot.

We may be joining you shortly...........

[Bluecat9 in reply to IannodaTruffe]

Yes have to be honest I could feel my muscles in different places. Not necessary a bad thing though hey?

Yes, it’s so sad that the world is facing this crisis. But we have to do what is necessary to beat it. Stay safe IannodaTruffe

Well done you! I tried running around the outside of the house but it includes 2 flights of steps, up and down, so didnt get very far 😊

[Bluecat9 in reply to Wenderwoo]

😂 sounds as good an obstacle as my dog and cat. Probably not ideal up and down steps, not the easiest things to run up and down 😮

Stay safe Wenderwoo
