#10k training

[thedeadarts]

My body is starting to look so sick, honestly. I am so proud of myself and the work I have put into my training and fitness.

Cashed in some junk miles today, womp womp. Mind, body, and spirit just kinda bailed. I've been in a crummy mood all day, probably just pms, but it sucks.

Tried the leash belt, don't like it lol. I'm going to try it again later, just to give it a chance. But it traps a lot of heat, is bulky and ungainly, and kinda awkward.

But I do admire some things about today: saw some deer, found a perfect (naturally deceased) leafwing specimen, drove into a beautiful sunset, and got to watch a train go by. I like watching the trains, trying to guess what they're carrying and admiring the graffiti 😍

We’re heading into a heat wave so I got my run in early today. Tbh the sun was starting to get pretty hot by the end, so next time I’ll probably try to go out a little earlier. I forgot how nice morning runs feel, though! I feel like I’m going to have a good day.

Run from today! Had some digestive problems so that was .... not fun.

Run time: 5min

I had a great day!!

I went running for the first time in a while! I ran for 5 minutes, walked another 5ish, ran for 1 minute, walked for a while, then I ran for 10s, SPRINTED for 40s, then walked again. I NEVER sprint! I decided to just go for it today because why not? And I should treat my body to feeling powerful more often.

I walked home almost all last week, drank so much water, and had a salad everyday and I lost 2lbs in a week! I can’t remember the last time I’ve actually lost weight when I am actively trying to. I always give up before I can see results. I’m so happy! I’m going to weight myself again on the 1st. I plan to keep making healthier choices because I am loving these results.

I am going to be SO READY for this 10k I have coming up!

I ran my 10k in 1 hour on my own social distancing and have now started training for my lockdown half marathon :~)

Any other Runner 5’s out there who have signed, or are planning to sign up for the Spring Virtual Race?

I think it would be great if we could help encourage each other in our training. Whether you plan to run the 5k or 10k, or both, we need to have each other’s backs 👍🏃🏻‍♀️🧟‍♀️

Reblog if you’re in!

I've been neglectful with my own posts this week, and unfortunately, I was also neglectful with actually doing stuff and eating well ...

But at least I've gone on two runs, 5k on Thursday and 6.4k today. They went okay, and the one on Thursday was particularly lovely in the sun. However, my hip has been a bit unhappy again, so I'm thinking about my 10k training and whether I probably should give up on distance, just stick with 5k and focus on speed and stuff 😕 ..
