Just maybe my mojo is back! You know what I did today? I runned!! That's twice in two days!!
This one was a solo affair, just me, my trainers, the 201 and the roads.
Plan was a structured walk/run and short run. Reality was a run ... oh this is fun ... run ... oh tired... walk.. run ..walk .... >looks at watch<.. oh I can do a bit more ... oh no people, must look good... cool downhill .... SPRINT!!!! Yippeee fun!!...>looks at 201 sees pace 8:30 beams<... >breathing hard<>looks at watch<... oh must get back.. run/walk/run and relax!
I'm sure you get the picture!
So in total today was 2.35m (so a smidge shorter than yesterday) and 30:46 so a tiny bit slower at 13mm pace (ish) not 12 but hey it was meant to be a slower, shorter recovery sort of run! I got back to the changing room, sat down and finished my drink. The other lady in there said "I know it's horrid ..." (I'm thinking ... weather wasn't bad! Run was good!)"... I hate running". I just smiled!
J was impressed I went out today and hasn't cancelled tomorrow so maybe 3 in a row for the pixie???!!!
So what did we learn today? Pixie can run faster! Pixie enjoys running! Pixie needs new shoes (roll on payday!) Running is fun! Oh and 1 last thought ... running at work is now like running at a club but without needing to go to a "proper" club! I like it!
