Week 7 run 3

I went out yesterday morning at 6.15 am to do my 25 minute jog. I still haven’t mastered a decent breathing technique yet. I spent most of the run fighting my inner demons telling me to maybe walk a little... They start talking to me before the 5 minute announcement from Sajid Kohli. Then constantly for the next 20 minutes. I’m starting week 8 tomorrow and hoping the extra 3 minutes don’t kill me. 😔😁

Don’t worry about the breathing… keep slaying the inner demons… keep coaching yourself over those finish lines… great running.

Good luck with your run today. I’m starting the 28 minute run today. I’ve done it before but that was 3 years ago. Thanks for your support.

Trust the programme, take it easy and you will do this. It does get easier when you graduate and some consolidation runs under your belt. Good luck 👍
