A slow 90 minute run πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Oh did I fiff and faff this morning! My plan said it was a 17k run today, my head said don’t be daft, not in this heat! So I compromised and did the NRC 90 minute run instead, which I’m pleased about as I was feeling the heat towards the end. I managed just over 11k which is this week’s long run, but I’m hoping to go longer next weekend.

Last night’s jaunt to a Mexican pop up restaurant probably fuelled me for most of the run, it was delicious! Very carby - who doesn’t like tortillas and cheese!

Happy running everyone 😊😊😊😎😎😎.

It would take a very early start to get 17k in before it got too hot today! I think you made a great call there. Well done!

Wise decision! I had an 11K yesterday as per plan and it took me 90 minutes too! Couldn’t imagine 17K!!!!

I’m hoping for cooler temperatures for next long run πŸ₯΅

Well done with your 90 Minute run !I like the NRC 90 Minute run , have used it a couple of times .

I'm sure 11k was enough in the heat though even powered by tortillas and cheese! 🀣
