C25K Day1 Minus 4

About an hour ago ...

Well just cooled down from the first 'run' 🀣with hub since Wednesday. Guiltily missed Friday's 5:30am Power Walk as he didn't want to get out of bed! 😱 (Some will say 'who can blame him?!' πŸ˜‚ ... It's made me realise I've got to be prepared to 'go solo' on this journey without him sometimes πŸ€”).

However, today, hub by my side, I tried to do a few '10-secondish joggish-intervals' 😬: about 5 of them in total πŸ˜‡.

Although I felt I was about to die of heavy sandbag legs with the first one πŸ₯΅ , by the last one I had - dare I say it - 'found my snail 🐌 stride'πŸ˜ƒ and it was feeling much better! Breathing wasn't too bad either!πŸ™ƒ

Going to try to get out every inbetween day this week for a walk - and keep thinking I really need to set up a place to get back into yoga. Like a lot of you I really love Adrienne's style, although I have never been able to stick at it.🀠

Have a lovely week everyone πŸ˜€ 😘

Look forward to reading your posts and seeing your lovely photos 😊

Congrats on finding your snail stride πŸ˜† After my 'C25K sloth session' I do a little yoga to a really good stretch .... Although I'm about as flexible as the kitchen table I am getting slowly better 😁

You are doing so well and I'd call your snail stride your happy pace, although snail pace is great for a lot of us

I am 100% snail 🐌, my warm up walk is faster than my jog am certain but it’s a much happier place than pretending to be Mo farah and getting injured very quickly (my past self). #Snaillove❀️

I looked at your photo a few times before I realised it has come out upside down on my phone! Looks like a lovely place to walk and run, when it’s the right way up! πŸ˜‚

Keep going, we are cheering you on 😊

Yes PeggySusi it is (embarrassingly!) upside down! Last week my photos were posting sideways! No idea why this is!? πŸ€”πŸ™ƒπŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«πŸ₯΄πŸ€―🀣
