Consolidation Run 13 🏃♂️
@MontyMooDog’s Weekly Virtual 5K
Drowned Rat 🐀☔️
Thought I had managed to find a break in the rain so I set off with a 160BPM BreakBeat playlist and started my warm up walk .... then the heavens opened ⛈🙄
Oh well, I’m out now and it’s only water! Let the games begin!
With the aim of going a bit further today I started off at a comfortable pace and planned not to drop the Ave. Pace above 6:30 whilst also promising myself not to push for a fast pace.
2.5K came round quite quickly at a good sub 15 minutes ✅
All of a sudden my sanctuary is interrupted with relentless beeps and the dreaded words ‘Low battery - please charge’ ..... *swear words* I forgot to charge my headphones 🎧 🤬
Decisions - push on and lose the music or swing by the house and replace for the annoying in-ear 🤔
The swing by wins - I can’t think of running without a beat and I don’t want to wear overhead headphones that have died nor do I want to carry them! I also need to hear Strava.
Run to the front door, pause Strava, dump headphones, pick up in-ear, out the door, unpause Strava, music on - back on it! 💪
5K is my next checkpoint - good at sub 30 minutes - by the skin of my teeth! ✅
Pushing on - I’ve my sights set on 6.5K! Last 0.5K and I’m starting to feel tired but also pumped to push for my longest running distance to date!
6.5K - 40:21 ✅
Again, no World Record but at the beginning of C25K I couldn’t even run for the bus without losing a lung!
💪 Magic 10K - I’m coming for you! 💪
I’m also signing up to the British Red Cross Miles for Refugees today! 🏃♂️
Happy running ya’ll! 🤗
Thanks Mister 
The struggle is real!
