Week 6 Run 2

Finding this week quite challenging. Although enjoyed running in light rain.

I really enjoyed week 5 run 3 but going back to intervals is tough. Must be in my head because I’m still moving and think my walking might be faster than my running 😂🐌🐌🐌

Anyway I stuck with it and slow pace got me there. I’m managing 4km so I think the 5km is a stretch for me. But hopefully that will come in time.

What’s ahead now with R3? I try not to overthink it. 😀

Wow, 4k is really good! Yes, going back to intervals is a bit of a pain but there must be a reason for it. I remember struggling with that particular run though so well done for completing it! Best of luck with your next run ☺

it really is tough going back to intervals. I found it very confusing. Keep it up though. W7 and W8 might feel tough again but it's all getting you there 👍🏻😁

Looking forward to straight runs but think its in my head and that makes my legs heavy - if that makes any sense 😀
