I just happened to come home and read this after a very trying interval training session. For this session I was running at fast speed for 3 minutes and then having 60 seconds of recovery. I'll be honest and say that I struggled but at the same time I'm proud that I did it. And it was the programme that kept me going with it. See, if someone else sets me the challenge or the task for the day I have this feeling of not wanting to let them down so I try my best to achieve it! And I really have had some challenges. I completed my second time trial and ended up a whole 5 seconds fast than the first one!!!!
I was just so stoked with this time! And now today I was challenged to some hill work. 90 seconds running up hill and then jogging down again. I did it. Yes I walked a little of some of the uphills but I got the whole 8 I needed to do in and here is my evidence of this run:
I have really been enjoying my running lately. Having a real focus to it has been the best thing. And it seems that it just keeps on getting better too. It seems I have managed to get a running buddy for some of those long weekend runs. This is certainly going to help and make some of those runs just a little more fun. I'm sure more will come about this in the future. For now, I'm just celebrating in the success of completing the challenges I have been set but also looking looking forward to tomorrow's rest day.
