What it do all you beautiful posters?
First day of week 4 started today. It definitely kicked my ass a little but rome wasnt built in a day. Its getting easier every week but damn is it still not easy, lol.
How are you all doing? I tried out some of your music suggestions and they were pretty good! The BPM playlists definitely helped me keep a steadier rhythm while I was tired.
I only just posted to last week’s thread yesterday, so I’m just gonna say the same thing again cos I’ve got nothing else new.
Which is that I went back to my first “post”-covid parkrun on Saturday, expecting a pretty low-turnout non-event, but there were over 200 people there…Awesome to get back to, especially in the great weather, but I did end up getting a bit competitive and going a little harder than I planned to. My running has been almost exclusively of the slow-and-steady-big-volume variety lately so upping intensity like that is a little silly, but fortunately no injuries or anything, and it felt really damn good. I’ll be more sensible next week, honest!
And glad to hear you decided to re-do week 3 last week rather than pushing it! In a month or so that slight slowdown in progress will be completely meaningless but you’ll have a better foundation, and fuck it, everyone is running their own race anyway.
I had a couple of Ankle sprains the last month so i started doing stability exercises! They helped me a lot and i’ve been feeling my feet less wobbly on every step! Yesterday i completed my first 12 Km steady run; got lost on the industrial area of my city in the process but it was worth it! I rested today and i’m looking forward to seeing how i feel tomorrow!
Keep up the good work all! =D
Well done comrade, that’s awesome!
What are the stability exercises you’ve been doing?
I am working through this progression:
Thank you and Keep it up yourself!
Way to go all! Keep it up!
Haven’t done any running lately but I did do a 4.5 mile hike on Sunday.
