Easy, Easy Jogging Sessions
Not sure if this really counts as training at all - HR struggling to get above 90. But it’s pleasant to jog along chatting to Shana, and I don’t have any running logged this week. So I thought what the heck - I’ll put it in the log anyway. The 25 minutes refers to 2 x 12.5 minute sessions.
I’m such a fraud.
Workout:
- Type: Run
- Date: 07/12/2007
- Total Time: 00:25:00.00
- Distance: 2.5 miles
- Average Pace: 10:00/mile
10 min miles are like my average runs! I’m so jealous it’s just an easy jog for you! Good luck with your tri’s - I might look into those someday!
Kate - I’ve always been the twitchy, fidgety kid, who just burned fuel and maintained a base level of fitness that meant I could slack off for a year, then have a few weeks of hell & be right back where I’d always been.
But your story is one that I really look up to, because it’s all about change, and deciding what you want to be, and then making it happen. And stuff like that makes me believe I can change too, and do things I’d never dreamed possible.
It isn’t where you are, but how far you’ve come on the journey that counts - as it says right at the top of your blog, “There is no telling how many miles you will have to run while chasing a dream”.
Oh, and finally . . . we were only doing 1 1/4 miles in each session in TOTAL. A little further, and things might have started feeling less like an ‘easy jog’!
How is Shana doing? You can count these work outs as active recovery for yourself.
Pretty well, I think. She was a little sore on the quads on Wednesday, but almost ran up the path to press the doorbell on Thursday at 06:30 (thankfully I got there before her thumb - Wife is forgiving, but not that forgiving). She ran the whole distance, and we talked about going a little further in future, but with a run/walk plan - seemed to go down well.
I’ve let her off training tomorrow morning, as tonight she has a work ’social’ evening, and will also be dropping in on the bookclub that Wife belongs to. So we’re doing Sunday instead!
