c25kYay running!
My bruised knee is nearly better, it was sunny, and I managed to organise enough time for a run this morning. I had meant to be conservative and redo week 4, but I had a fat-thumb moment on the app and started Week 5 instead so decided to go with it, on the grounds I can just redo week 5 instead if I'm not up to it.
It was noticeably more pleasant to run on the sunny side of streets than shady, to the point that towards the end I just ran up and down the sunny sides, rather than my usual up one side, down the other. I ease got a stitch part-way through the second of the three runs and slowed down further to ease it off. Total distance 3.3 km.
I am so happy to have restarted. It's going to be a challenge to get out during daylight this week, and it's awfully cold in the dark, and I think I need some kind of long-sleeved top, but overall I am really happy to be back on it.

Date: 03/12/2012 09:57 pm (UTC)Good luck with Week 5; it's the one with the scarily steep curve, but my experience was that once I had completed that scary 20-minute run the world was my oyster. Well, so far at least, but I don't expect Week 8 to be ridiculously harder than Week 7.
