Consolidation Run 1

[CobbleRunner]

My first post graduation run! Still warm even at 8.30pm but enjoyed that and cooled down with some Cadbury’s Creme Egg ice cream 😋

Woohoo! Did you stick to 30 minutes? Or mix it up a little bit?

[CobbleRunner Graduate in reply to dorarunning]

I repeated Week 9 and stuck to the 30 👍🏼

Fabulous! And well done!

I love that photo too, it’s incredibly atmospheric!

[CobbleRunner Graduate in reply to Workingathome]

Thank you. It felt a bit weird not having to follow a programme!

We are so lucky to have this fabulous weather to run in:). How far or how long did you run for? How many weeks do we consolidate?

[CobbleRunner Graduate in reply to Bamboo20]

I know, wasn’t it glorious yesterday? I repeated Week 9. Currently I am only covering just over 3.5km but I guess that will increase with practice. My plan is to do Week 9 for a few weeks then maybe look at the Stepping Stones app 🙂

That’s about the pace I’m running there’s no rush did my 4 th consolidation run this morning did 4 k so happy with that

[CobbleRunner Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Oh that’s brilliant! There’s hope for me then 😂

Well done! I did my first post grad run yesterday! I found it hard, esp the last 5 mins! I don't think the heat and sunshine helped though. Absolutely well done though! No stopping us now!! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️😆

Well done! Did you find it strange not doing an official week? I did! Also found it a little tough but I think that’s because of the heat and not drinking enough water 💦

Congratulations for your first graduation run .

It does get better and you will be surprised what happens naturally if your keeping to routine.

Like you I have been repeating W9 too.

I was surprised last week ( W3) when I managed 6K on my Wednesday morning run.

I decided I may try this Mid week , only if it felt right . I’m a plodder and prefer cooler weather . So go out at 8am.

However, like you are doing , I may try an evening run.

All the best , 5K Parkrun are beginning to look favourable !

Aah well done and yes can’t wait to take part on a park run 🏃‍♀️
