Interval workout today. This was a hard one. 3 minute hard pushes with 5 minute easy jog and repeat. I ended up having to walk for a minute during the 5 minute jog part. Hopefully next time I do this run I will be able to do the whole thing as intended but I’m content with the run today

Ran 25 minutes without stopping to walk! Watch says it was 3.5 km. That 5k in January is looking very possible!

Got my Sunday 5K done this morning before work. It was the perfect temperature. Right at 50F. It’s suppose to go cold again this coming week

I love running, and am looking forward to running sober (instead of hungover or anticipating to drink). I’m curious about the book recommendation - as I feel like it will resonate with my experience

I remember my shoulder surgery a few years ago and I was so depressed and missed running and working out so much. Walking doesn’t give me the same endorphins as the hard effort of the running. I’m sorry about your neck. A herniated disc sounds terribly painful
You are not alone on this either. I have had those thoughts when I have to take a break from working out. I think the lack of endorphins plays heavy on the thinking.
I hope you feel better soon

I wasn’t feeling it this morning so I went out for a short one and ended up doing almost 5 miles
I took some walk breaks. It was a decent run minus the damn wind. We are having 20 mile per hour winds today.

My current PR is 30 minutes 30 seconds. So I was like a minute off today. It’s so close but feels so far

My runs from yesterday and today. Sunday is suppose to be for 5ks but the weather this week made it hard to get in my long run. Today wasn’t much better. It was 29f with a wind chill that made it feel like 21!!! The first 3 miles was such a mental struggle then I put on a guided tempo run to get me through the last few miles. Overall, today’s run was good. My legs felt strong and my body isn’t as sore as it normally is after a long run so I think that’s a good sign

Yay!! I’m so happy for you I’m out of the working out game for a few days at least. I have a fever, sore throat and my body hurts terribly. I just want to sleep

The plan was to run for 28 minutes today, but when the signal came, I felt I still had more in the tank, so kept going for all the 5 minute cool down walk time 
! Forgot to start my watch, so don’t know the distance

Now I’m getting jealous I haven’t even thought of any excise the past few days cause I just felt so bad. I’m starting to feel better and can’t till my next run. I’m going to try on sunday to see if I can keep my streak alive.

I think I will have to accept my 5K sunday streak being broken. I took the dogs for a 1 mile walk today and had to take 2 breaks and towards the end I felt woozy and like I was going to pass out. I don’t want to risk passing out in the early morning while running. I know it’s only friday but I just don’t see me getting my energy back by sunday. I just finished my first full shift back to work and I am absolutely drained.

It’s over. I’m pretty sad about it. It was 25 weeks long My new running shoes came and I haven’t even opened the package. I’m going to try a weight workout tomorrow and then tuesday try a short easy run/jog. I need my endorphins, I’m getting depressed
