Graduation run one 'kickarse'

[Teresafaith]

Kicked my butt again and did my first graduation run- pushed on to do 40mins, but was a lot slower today. Managed 4.50 k, but ran a farther distance than the other day!- do I need a new Fitbit?- I'm still using my old charge 2.

Well done, but please take care. If you only did 3x30 minute runs last week then you have marginally exceeded the 10% rule used by most experienced runners to increase their weekly training load and avoid doing too much too soon, as explained in the guide to post C25K running healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

We are all capable of doing way more than our bodies are conditioned to do, but not without increasing our injury risk. Sticking to gently progressive training plans is the safest way to push our limits, whilst gently increasing our resistance to injury.

Injury often strikes out of the blue and can stop you for days, weeks or even months.

Take care.
