That was a tough one ...longest 25 mins yet !

Zumba last night I think I need to take a day In between Zumba and running as it’s always really hard the following day.

But I did it ....not well ...but still !

Zumba is intensive , more so than your C25K JOGGING I hope.

And it will have in impact on how your C25K outings will feel. Please bear that in mind.

I think I need to not count a day I do Zumba as a rest day! Really was tough this morning and I’m pretty sure it was because I did a class on which would have been my rest day

Gosh you’re slaying this with Zumba on the side as well..! 😃 you probably wouldn’t find it as tough with an extra rest day added, it definitely puts more of a spring in my step when I take one 😊

I’m going to not count a Zumba day as my rest day now , it’s a mad class really upbeat and fun but yeh that’s not really a rest day !!

Sounds like a lot of fun ☺️ Never considered myself coordinated enough to try a session..!

But you did it 💪 👏

Can’t believe how you manage it with all the Zumba you do too. I just do walking and Yoga on my rest days, altho’ bizarrely when walking I know have to stop myself from breaking into a gentle jog 😂 whoever thought that would happen 🤷‍♀️

Have a rest and I’m sure you’ll cruise through R3.... and beyond 😊

I totally agree with you Cazza. I find myself thinking surely a wee jog would be okay 😂😂 and then I wonder who is the idiot that’s taken over my mind hahahahaha.
