My fitness has been slipping a little this year, but managed to get my fastest parkrun of 2024 yesterday

Amazing time and I can certainly think of worse ways to do one! The river Wye is lovely!

Managed my 5kms within 42 minutes today. I’m not looking for speed too quickly, just building up slow. Felt strong and easy today though.

Last run in my 6 week program. I plan to take a week off and let my body rest from running and then I’ll pick a new program.

Well, that’s 12 months in a row! What a journey it’s been. Yesterday felt great, but the course was a bit short according to everyone’s watches. So, probably really a couple more minutes. I’m finding my pace better each time.

Are you going to keep going or are you done with the one a month half?
Great question🙂
Well, this all started with a bad race last May. That’s when I vowed to do one a month until the same race this year. That race is now June 1st this year, so, I will go until then for sure. But, now I’ve seen one in Utah I want to do in July. So, I’m thinking I’m going to have a hard time stopping this little obsession.
My times have got way better. But, that’s caused me to reflect a bit on what am I really looking to get out of this? Lots of things actually. Some not so obvious and a bit embarrassing to even talk about. But, it has also led me to some “skirmishes” with alcohol. I recently reset my sober date. I need to focus on a few things. I’ve made some changes and am coming to grips with some things in life.
So yeah, good question, haha. Nothing’s ever easy, as I always tell the youngsters at work🙂

I found my next program I’m going to work. A 9 week 10k improvement plan. I looked at the planned runs and some of them will be a challenge. I set it to start next sunday

Went out running on Saturday and yesterday after work. Basically run a couple of songs, walk a song, and repeat 3 or 4 times. Not sure of distance or speed, but better than being on the sofa!

The trail runs are paying off when I do regular runs now. Going to need some new shoes soon. These ones have over 600 miles now

Just felt like running today. I was going to take a week off before starting my new program but
The first 3 were ran and then walk breaks were thrown in for the last 3

I might have pushed a little far distance wise but I’m feeling alright. I wanted a baseline to compare with the new program. The last 2 miles were a bit of a struggle though
