Today was the closest I have come to repeating a session this time around. I had a hard time of it last time where I almost didn't think I'd be able to complete the last running interval. It went fine during the first half but the second half was severely dampened by fatigue and a slight tummy ache. It was such a struggle and I only just barely managed it. So I thought that I might have to repeat that one today. The increase in difficulty with this app is so gentle though, always one minute at the time, so I thought I'd try and try to repeat only if I actually had to give up.

I'm pleased to report that today's run went much better! I was able to keep a more or less steady pace during all the running and there were neither leg pains of any sort nor tummy aches. I'm sure it has something to do with the delicious full English Husband cooked for me this morning. (Yes it does!)

And as a bonus, I met this adorable chap on the way.
(I also shared this photo with common_nature, so apologies if you get it twice.)

So in total today I ran for 20 minutes, and next time will be the last session in level 1. I'm dithering a bit on whether or not to do repeats of that last one for a while as a sort of little rest or pressing straight on with level 2. We'll see.

Hurrah, I'm glad you managed to complete today's run!
(Mmm, I shall try mentioning the benefits of full cooked English for running to Spouse)

Mine had beans, mushrooms, eggs, vegetarian sausuages and a potato waffle. Just in case the components matter. :p

Mousekins!!! What a lovely photo, thanks so much for sharing.

And well done for keeping on with the program and achieving a better run than last time. I'm really impressed you've got all this way through L1, 20 minutes is great.

Thank you. I hardly ever see wildlife other than butterflies and the occasional bird when I run. :)
