I have at least one of these every week, when I am sat and my desk and the last thing I want to do is going running after work. Then I look at my training plans, see the weeks ticked off and see how the number of weeks is getting less and less. So I get changed at 5pm and I go. I don't think there will ever be a time when I am looking forward to all my runs. I am doing better though, they all used to be 'can't be bothered runs' - now its only 1 or 2/4.
Run stats:
Distance - 6.44km (4 miles)
Time - 43:08.11
Avg speed - 9.0km/h
Max speed - 11.5km/h
Calories - 492
I actually enjoyed this run, I went with a friend who I haven't seen for a couple of weeks. We chatted all the way there and walked the warm up and then set off seperately. She is a very funny lady so most of the my time was spent laughing (embarrassingly) out loud to some of the conversations we'd had on the way, trying to resist the urge to belt out Rhianna at the top of my lungs while also trying to fight off the midgys. It went fairly quickly really.
I always seem to find the first mile the hardest, even my on longer runs. I put this down to it taking a while for me to find my pace, once I find that I seem to be ok. It never feels easy, I just don't feel like I am going to die.
Plan ticked off for today, so I am happy!
Thoughts on Bristol today - what state are my feet going to be in when I am done?! I had a fish pedicure last week which made a massive difference, now they are a bit gross again and I've only run 6 miles since.
