I've done man posts like this where I have said that I'm back on it but this time I really am back on it... I have to be.... As there is something like 7 weeks left till the half marathon.
The main reason or at least the main excuse has been because I fell down the stairs a few weeks ago and my anke hasn't been right since. And even though it can be a little tender tontouch I bit the bullet and just did it!
Yesterday went to the Life gym and did a pretty normal workout including a jog on the treadmil... Admittedly it wasn't easy... Might have bee cause I just don't like the gym, but I'm only there for 6 weeks!
Decided to go for a jog with the view of 'taking it easy' and completely surprised myself! Here is my results (used the map my run application on my phone which is amazing!)
Distance: 6.31mi
Time: 01:18:46
Pace: 12:29min/mi
Speed: 4.81mi/h
Half way through I saw the rest of the James Whale team which spurred me on. I hAve 'markers' on my run, which are points that I ran to along the Swansea bay front... I've probably got about 5 and actualy went to the 3rd which is fab... But what is even better for me is that the periods that I ran for were around 15 mins at a time... Again, a nit stunned about this!
So, plan of action is to do another jog tomorrow evening, Zumba on Tuesday ... Not really planned after that but will get a session in the gym and at least one jog in before Saturday!
AWESOME!
