Week H day 2

[liv]

Kept to the 7.7 kph pace for my day 2 run with the fast intervals, but extended the running intervals to 10 minutes each instead of 1 km. That was really hard work, I was substantially out of breath. But I did it, and improved my time to 42'29'' or under 8½ minutes per km (including the 5 minute walking intervals). Again, I feel I've really been stretching the limits of what I can do, even if a 30 second improvement isn't that much in absolute terms.

Ooh! Really hard but successful feels really good. *hugs*

Yes, exactly! I was genuinely unsure if I was going to be able to complete each interval, not just bored and uncomfortable, but I pushed myself and I felt so proud when I did it. I think I'm starting to get a little bit of the mindful awareness of what my body can and can't do that people keep talking about.
