I got these done when I changed my site - this was my original choice of colour too but I couldn't remember what RGB code they were!
Anyway they both mean about the same
Believe in the magic of your dreams!
The theme of this blog.
My dream is a GFA and with Coach Spans helping me I believe I can do it!
Anyway last night we had some fun with the barbie - like a small fire!! hehe!!
Tonight I have a 50mins run planned.
Tomorrow I have to take the car to the garage which is further away from work than I thought so I'm becoming all pro like!
I'm doing a double! Well 15-20mins 1st thing then 30 mins in the evening as I will run between work and the garage!!
Will report back on tonights run later!
Somewhat later ...
Well I got home, changed and headed out of the door ... the GPS failed after less than 11mins due to dead batteries. I was alone! It felt odd not knowing how I was doing. I've not used my HRM for a while due to a sore itchy rash (heat related!) where the strap goes but today I did use it. Once the GPS failed I looked at my HR and it said 169, I thought that had failed too! I can't be working that low, must be going to slowly. I ploded on. Thinking the pace felt OK and about 12mm (I guessed!) but the HR was still lower than I expected, in fact it only got to the 183 in the last 3-4 mins of the 25mins run eg 35mins + into my run. It felt wrong!
As I approached the last minute or two of this section my guts started to complain. I'm not one to suffer from the trots but I was glad that the leisure center was there! I reached that in 36:41, about 5K from the start and the last minute or two I had slowed down due to feeling a tad uncomfortable!
After that unscheduled 5mins pit stop (sorry too much info!?!) I went straight into the last 2 run sets. The muscle in my right butt check had for some reason stiffened and felt uncomfortable for a minute or so but I carried on. Again no GPS to tell me how I was doing made me feel almost insecure! I had 2 sets of 5:1 and then a few mins cool down walk to finish at BB to collect Gnome. So I wandered around the streets near the school and down a few footpaths. I finished and walked up the hill/High Street to get Gnome. I didn't feel over worked but I was dripping! The pit stop had seen my HR drop down to 130 ish so I wasn't surprised to see it was low (160's) when I stopped.
I got home and checked the map.... 5K to the pit stop but after that I found it hard to trace my steps and think that I did about 0.8m in the last 11 mins (which was about the same as the start before the GPS failed) So all in all not bad.
So no stats apart from average HR - 172!!! OK so yes I stopped but that is amazingly low for me! It was low for such a large amount of my run that I can only conclude that I am getting a lot fitter!!
Tomorrow will be interesting - I've never done 2 sets of exercise before!
