Decided to do a training run for 5K sunday. Normally I just go out and go on feels but I needed someone to tell me to run

Sober running buddies. I ran my first 5k straight thru!!! Havent even done it in training. Ran 3.1mi straight without walking. Did a race this morning, yes that helps :slight_smile: Feeling so proud of myself and trying to bask in this feeling before i jump to what next

Happy global running day today jun 4. I was surprised with a garmin badge after a run this morning.

Proud of my effort this morning. Its clear i need to set an intention before a run. Today was a solid 20min walk then 40min run. I ran consistently 3 times with a few walk breaks but proud of the longer run times!

I think the 199 heartbeat was an error but it did feel tough towards the end

Not really. Just to survive it lol It’s my last long run before the half later this month.
I need to dial in my nutrition on this run so I don’t bonk out like my last long run

Thank you! I’m lurking around. I’ve been running loads so my brain has been so focused on that there isn’t much room for anything else :rofl:

Things really fell apart at the end. I ended up cutting the run short. I was not in this mentally and then my knee was bothering me (it’s now swollen) and then the sun was so rough. The temp went up over 10 degrees while I was running. My nutrition was decent though so that’s a little win. This was one of those runs that makes me think “why do I like running?”
The next one will be better :crossed_fingers:

I’ve had those runs before, even though they don’t feel great we get to learn from them for the next time. Still a great run, well done!

1st treadmill run. It was definitely different. I think it will be a valuable tool in working on my endurance. Some of the walk breaks I didn’t really need but I wanted to stop. I just feel like a hamster on a wheel. I think I will find a pretty picture of a beach and put it in my eyesight so I can just transport myself there

I had to take a week off because my right hip started bugging me. Feels like maybe hip flexors? I dunno. I made an appointment with a sports medicine practitioner, but the earliest he could get me in is 3 July. I have another 5k coming up in a week, so I am champing at the bit to start training again. Plus not running is really throwing me off :grimacing: Tomorrow will be exactly a week, so if it feels ok, I might try a gentle run. I just hope it’s not arthritis :worried:

My hip has been bothering me too. When I lift my leg to the side it pulls on a muscle and hurts. And I can’t lay on that hip anymore. Not sure what’s going on in there. I have been working extra mobility/ strength for my hips but I know stuff like that takes a while to help

I’m sorry you are having to sit out on running. Hopefully you get back to it soon :people_hugging:
