Back to morning training today, which is harder for me. We were woken by a smoke alarm at about 6.45 so I headed out for quite an early run (for me, at least). Today it was run 7 minutes, walk 3 which I repeated 3 times. It was a good session in all. Based on my measurements of my route I did 4.5km, which I'm very happy with. I have about 3 1/2 weeks to go before the 5k and I think I'll be ok after today even if I have some spots of walking.
The 4.5 includes my five minute walk which I do as a warm up and then a bit of a walk home, so including those times it took me 37 minutes. to do the distance. There are two hills on the route, which I slow down for and do quite slowly.
My body is quite tired and I'm full of sweat. The next step is run 8 minutes and walk 2. The walk of two minutes has not been a good one for me so far as I still do need a bit of recovery time in between. I find my walk of three minutes is gone before I know it!
All in all, though, today was good. I think the stress of moving the week before may have had a larger impact than I thought on my running.
