Just completed my second run of week 2 and this run felt almost 'good' ๐
It was different to my other runs. I wasn't so out of breath for a change and I noticed the difference.
I did have music on for the first time and I think it really helped me set a better stride when running. I found a bit of rhythm and that in turn seemed to help my breathing.
In the last run I even had a little 'Rocky' moment and felt the urge to shadow box as I came down the final bit of road ๐๐๐
Omg I just realised I might end up actually liking running. And for years I've said I'm too fat to be a runner!
I do now wish I wasn't carrying all this extra body weight but am hoping it will shift over time as I get better at this ๐ค
Wishing everyone a good week and stay safe in this heat!!
Well done ! And congratulations for doing it in this heatwave , it amazing how your breathing gets better when you sort your pace out isn't it ๐๐๐๐๐
Wow!!!! Well done - Iโm definitely going to steal the shadow boxing thing hahahahaha. I used music for the first time this Morning too and it really seemed to help. The time slipped away and I actually felt reasonably fresh when I got home again - very sweaty but fresh hahahaha.
Reading this...I think you are actually me ! And we are at the same stage too, I did W2r2 today also! 'Almost felt good' and 'too fat to run' ! We so can do this ! x
