Second consolidation week 😎

[SassyF]

Yo!

It’s been a week since I posted about my first week of consolidation runs, so here’s the low down on week 2.

First run: nice and easy 30mins using NRC and enjoyed it. Stuck to a well known route of mine to keep it simple- didn’t want any issues after a weekend of scoffing Easter eggs 🙄

Second run: Another NRC 30mins run, Controlling my breathing and using that as a guide as to speeding up or slowing down. Did some hills today too, it went quite well.

Third run: Another dawn run today - 5K achieved using the NRC again....shock and awe that I’m actually getting faster. Today each of my splits were PR’s and I am chuffed to bits to see some progress and that all five of them were consistent and at the same pace within a second or two. I can’t say I was trying any harder than normal - it just happened. So, something is working!

Today my husband was also out on his daily run and we passed each other going in opposite directions so we had a high five moment and it dawned on me as I was finishing that we’ve turned into the couple that runs....🤪😆

Super excited about finally getting a gait analysis done next week. It’s long overdue and I really do need some proper fitting trainers! I’m pretty sure that now I’ve been running consistently for 11 weeks that it’s likely that I will keep going now.

Have a great weekend everyone! ❤️😎
