First run of the week |
Much the same as last week : Short, easy runs.....Tip from Greg McMillan :
"Your task, then, isn't to spend hours reading opinions on running form and footwear. Your task is just to think about running tall over the next week. This doesn't mean running stiff. It means simply holding your body in a relaxed yet balanced position. Once you achieve this relaxed, balanced position with your body, then the rest of your form is pretty easy to correct."
Monday: 4km easy. AHR 76%. School/Renwick/School. Hot & windy.
Tuesday: 6km easy. AHR 77%.
Wednesday: 8km easy. AHR 72%. Cool morning; lower heart rate = fewer walk breaks!
Thursday: Rest Day... went out for lunch.
Last run for the week |
Saturday: 6km on Diamond Fields Rd for shade...very hot; walk breaks to lower HR.
Sunday: 12km. Started at 8:00a.m! Google Earth update shows a new look for maps!
Total for the week = 40km
Good week there. It's getting warm down here too - I need to do the late evening runs to avoid meltdown.
ReplyDeleteYikes. I did an early morning run today and suffered total meltdown. Only Miranda survived the whole run. Miranda is tough.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ewen & speedygeoff for taking time to comment....it surely is one of the things that encourages me to keep going....feeling connected.
ReplyDeleteAs for avoiding meltdown.....it's a risk I take because I cannot get out early!
