Is there a #Running honor for "I got stung by a wasp and didn't even lose my pace for more than a second"?
I feel good about today by that's a leg throb that's gonna persist for a while.
Anyways, I'm now running a 30 minute #5k every day and I'm very proud of that.
Fun fact: That first dip in the pace chart is the sting.
Contrary to the opinion of random people on the Internet, #5K display work perfectly well over mini-DisplayPort (1.4).
As I've been pushing more #running into the week to prep for the #5k through Lakeview Cemetery on Sept 24th I've been finding it a lot easier to get longer than 5k runs in. I've also been doing more low heart rate training thanks to jumping into the #garmin ecosystem off of my #fitbit addiction. Garmin has a TON more training resources available with stats that seem more focused on people that want to train and improve. I could have kept going but I could tell Raven was about done.
Just ran a treadmill 5km in 41’ 50” - 30 seconds off my PB, darn it! First time I have successfully run 5km in a couple of months. It was a progression run, so I pushed the pace a little each km (I did start very slowly!), then cooled down by walking 300m before doing a #peloton post-run stretch. Rest day tomorrow, then a 4km easy run on Sunday. It will be nice to run somewhere new (the Quarry park in Shrewsbury) #running #fitness #FitnessJourney #5k

Todays #5k run was no fun at all. I had to motivate myself all the way;
- said to myself I’d walk the final 2 laps
- told myself I’d definitely walk the last lap
- guaranteed myself I’d be walking the final half lap
- promised myself I’d walk the final 250m climb
Oddly I ran (stumbled) to the end. Not much improvement on pace but I like the consistency.
First #5k run in over 6 months and, boy!, did I feel it. Didn’t break the 6 min / km [9.7 min / mile] but I did get out and do it. I’d be happy to knock 30 seconds off my split times if I can do this regularly.
Today's planned 5K
Remapped as a 3.8
Lead runner > wrong turn.

I've probably been going too long in between runs lately; the #5k I ran this morning had me gasping and struggling way more than I like (granted it could've been the 8000% humidity as well).
Or maybe it's because I got saucy and threw some sprints in for good measure.
Still, a day with a run is better than a day without. #running
Summer running had me a blast;
Summer running doesn't happen so fast;
I ran in rain; it was heaven for me;
But I'm a man, who's as hard as can be.
Summer rain, pounding away
To-ah! Oh, the su-u-u-mmer rain
Well-a, well-a, well-a, huh.
Tell me more, tell me more
Did you run very fast?
No, I didn't, no I didn't.
Coz a snail whizzed past...

The two good things about not having a competitive (with myself or against others) bone in my body is 1) I don’t have to prove anything to myself or anyone else, and 2) I can run at snail’s pace and never be disappointed … because a 5k at 21 mins and a 5k at 31 mins are both still 5k … and really, nobody will really give a damn about how quick you can run. So fast or slow … just get up and go! And enjoy it, every time!

Finished parkrun today.
Jogged, walked, fartlek style
I chose Victoria Park Glasgow as it is flat and in three laps.
I'm pleased at such a small victory. Now to push on with improving my diet and cutting back alcohol.
Spinfit tomorrow.
Thanks to the excellent people at Parkrun. And to the lovely Victoria Park.
