Jeffing in driving rain!

Cold and very, very wet today, but I went anyway. I'll admit, it was only 25 minutes of jeffing at a 30:30 ratio, but I feel better for having done it, at least now I'm home and dried off/warmed up!

I'm slowly starting to like jeffing. I've yet to do it for longer distances, but pace wise, weirdly, I'm a little bit faster than when I jog the whole distance. It does take a bit of getting used to, but it might be my way forward.

Ok...time for a restorative cuppa tea and a little snuggle with a greyhound and a good book.

Happy running all...

Well done for going out on the wet today! 👏👏👏👍 You’re braver than I am! I was set to postpone until tomorrow, but the rain stopped.

Good that you like Jeffing! I’ve tried interval work and as part of my overall plan it works well.

Yes, it is surprising! I was doing something similar, but running and jogging rather than walking. Unfortunately, the only time I tried it, I forgot to start my watch so don’t have proper stats to study! This week I did my fast 2K instead, so I’ll try again next week with it.
