Managed all of the 6x90 second runs this morning!!!! Felt much easier than Monday's run. Can't decide whether it was down to my increased althleticism (!) the pre-run banana (thanks to whoever it was whose blog advised that) or my snazzy new running socks with elasticated arch support!

Wk 2 Run 2 - Banana power?



Well done!
When I was at this stage I invested in new trainers an the shin splints went overnight -miraculous recovery
not tried eating before a run tho scared I might get a stitch or even worse heart burn and indigestion

Probably all of the above! :D. Well done and keep on going. I think I read somewhere that bananas contain just the right minerals(?) to help build/repair muscles and stop cramps .... Whatever, if it works for you keep on bananaring too! LOL Linda x

Well done! Whether it was the bananas or the socks, you are the one that put in the effort and did it.

Awesome job. I always have a banana about 30 minutes before I go jogging also a glass of water
Keep at it.

Well done! I'm a banana girl too, had one about 30 minutes before every run, as I prefer ro run as soon as I get up, whatever time of day that might be as I work shifts.
I've never had a stitch or heartburn so definitely works for me!
Good luck for the rest of your runs

I'm a banana eater before a run along with a cup of green T, works wonders Well done keep up the good work.
