Second Consolidation Run Done

I ran my second consolidation run this morning. I ran 5.6km, it felt amazing and I ran slower as advised.

I ran around Battersea Park then over Chelsea Bridge along the Embankment, over Albert Bridge and back through the park alongside the river, it was so enjoyable. What a change in weather, It was very windy but it felt so good to be out running and was so pretty with all the leaves blowing around!!

Lol it is so funny that I am still walking down to the park like I did when I did couch to 5k, realised today that I could actually run down to the park!!!

Happy Running!

That is so lovely running over Albert Bridge. I called it Birthday Bridge when I was little as it looks like a cake. Well done, S

Sounds like a great run !

A good idea to still do the 5 min warm up walk 🙂

Thank you!

Oh yes still do that the park is about a 15 minute walk but I always start from the park as I did when I started.

Did you go for a run today?

Sounds great!

And yes what a change weather wise! Colder months coming 😫😫

I think it’s still a good plan to do the warm up walk anyway:) unless you’re going to do dynamic stretching instead maybe?

Thank you!

Oh I know I need to get some warmer running clothes now. Feels so lovely to be running in a new season though!

Yes will continue with the warm up walk.

Hope you enjoy your next run

Take care
