Fall In Love With Running …the rest

I’ll be back to the baking soon (Pretzels people, pretzels) but in the meantime…

3: Run with music – There’s  running playlist that we’ve all be adding to here. I’ve been trying to wean myself off running but this was a nice excuse to get a bit of music-based oomph

4: Run with a friend – I was working from home so the most company I got was from my cats… however, the aid of the AR facebook group was much needed in kicking me out of the door at lunchtime!

5: Run early – combined with Run with a friend = Beigel run. 6.45 from brick lane and around the sights of London. All before work.

6: Run for adventure – For me this was an adventure into new paces and racing with others. I’ve gone from always running solo, to running with a group sometimes but racing solo, to racing with a group. Thanks to Ben from FP’s excellent and flexible planning and the AR cheer crew & 40minute pacing group, Saturday saw me adventure into the 40 minute mark and set a 10k PB of 40:02 …or 39:62 as I’m calling it!

7: Run long – Sunday is my rest day so I didn’t run long but I’ll be back to it next week.

Still to come….

8: Run and do Yoga event. Yoga and pilates are great for strength and stretching. I particularly like that the running focus takes away form the spiritual side of yoga. It has a lot to offer the long distance pavement pounder.
