I'm gonna count that as Day 1 week 4, and carry on as per plan, my legs were actually a little achey this morning for the first time hehe.

Well done think I might start again... Coz only done once in week 1 z

Week 4 Day 2 done today. I am finding week 4 quite hard to be honest. The 5 minute jogs really buck my legs. I don't recommend running at the beach, the wind was fierce!!

I do zumba on some of my rest days. I've read alot that trainers recommend that we do crosstraining on rest days to build stength and up indurance levels, including weights on some days. Swimming is a non-weight bearing exercise so is probably perfect. And if you swim with you head under water and breath every 2-4 strokes it improves lung capacity, great for running. I used to swim as a teenager, you'd never know lol..enjoy x

Thats great, thanks for your reply. I too used to swim as a teenager, definitely cant swim as fast as i did then!! lol.
Swimming it is then!

Booked for spinning tomorrow, friend of mine wants to give it a try and somehow talked me into it last night. (think it might have something to do with wine consumption) So doing D3 W1 on Wednesday before heading off with hubby to footy match..

Think im going to ache this week!

Blue x

 

[MrsLmc]

Good luck with spinning class, its supposed to be really tough but gives great results, I may try it if I tire of zumba. x

 

[dublinrose]

Well done everyone...I am facing into Week 2 tonight and feeling nervous Just getting over a cold which had me floored all weekend and I hope I haven't lost all the good work I did last week.

 

[MrsLmc]

Did another day today, finding it extremely tough outside, completely different from treadmill, but gonna try and do the majority of it outside from now on and do it on the treadmill if I can't get out x

Thanks darling x

 

[MrsLmc]

Sarah do you know if the track we will run on the 5k is flat or not? I reckon I'm gonna end up walking half and jogging half :-(

 

[azwethinkweiz]

I doubt its completely flat, there is no track... It'll be like running around an area of the park if its anything like the last 5k I did in there. I walked most of that though. Don't worry hon, I doubt I'll be fit to jog the whole thing either! We will try our best!! X
