Monday 8/6/20 – Run 1
Determined this morning to get out today even if it was just a shorter run. I’ve seen posts of people starting day 1 of training, I suppose the added bonus I have is I started 10 weeks ago to follow a longer training plan so I have still got time yet and a little set back doesn’t have to be the finish of my training.
It’s hard to explain but I feel like i’m scared i’ll forget how to run. A bonus this morning my healthier eating has paid off, 3lb off! Got to keep that going now for the week ahead.
Usual pre run breakfast today of porridge, the weather has changed again and is much cooler today it may even be long sleeve weather. Such a big difference to a couple of weeks ago but the bonus is I do not need to rush to get out too much as it’s not getting any hotter anytime soon.
I ran my usual route down the road to the entrance and along the trail, hip felt a little sore around half way point so I decided to stick to just the main lake today not wanting to push it too much, less people out today again which was nice and it was good to be back out but I would be lying if I didn’t say it took some effort today, that doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy getting out it just felt like a bit of a slog for such as small steady Jeff.
