Up and out this morning for W7R2. I love how it is becoming a habit to get up and get out there. I can really see this being a permanent thing in my life now, whereas before I wasn't sure I'd be able to go past the programme and stick with it. What a welcome change of mindset!
After a tough W7R1 that left me pretty drained, I really enjoyed this one. I picked a "kind" route that has few inclines and goes through the park, and at 17 degrees it felt actually cool after the last couple of scorching runs!
Slight mishap in that I managed to pause the C25k app and had to do some speedy mental maths with MapMyRun to figure out how long I had left to go! So a workout for body and mind, today! haha!
Adding Chariots of Fire to my playlist was a stroke of genius, too. I laughed out loud at the cliche (to the surprise of passing dog walker) but it definitely spurred me on! Does anyone have any good suggestions for epic tunes like that? I've already got eye of the tiger on there...!
One more W7 run to go and then another increment in distance. I love how structured this is. SO GOOD! I have even treated myself to some shiny new running gear online at Decathlon and can't wait to try it all on!
Happy running, everyone!
