First day of 5K Runner complete!

I’m exhausted. My lungs are burning. And I’m pretty impressed with myself.

[sunny-runner]

Set myself a new challenge for my runs this week. Usually I just focus on hitting half an hour of jogging but I've been pushing myself a tiny but more to keep going to reach 5k which seems to very slowly be improving!

I came 🏃

I evaded 🤢

I collected ☑

(Yes, I am laying on a tree dangling over crystal clear [very cold] water!

This was a freakin' awesome run for me! I stayed under ten minutes on the first 4 k's I purposely slowed the pace for a cool down on the final k. The mission had ended so I was just taking in the random song that just fit with that final push. It fit perfectly and just helped me chill. I had no intention of running anymore at that point...

Until... the very last 0.5km a zombie horde came on my tail. Thinking to myself, "Okay, fine! I'll try to outrun them. Just as I evaded them, at the 5.01km mark, I was at the trail exit! It's like they were in my brain and watching me at the same time...lol

I got to my car and decided to take a stroll over to the tree for the photo ok, cause...why not?

Also, ya girl run a sub 30 minute 5k! This was a few runs ago and I’m although this is still my best time, I’m consistently getting similar figures. I don’t know where the sudden boost came from, but I’ve been trying to get to this for the past 5 years. On to the next goal!

“At 41 years of age I am a 4th year medical student. I ran my first marathon in 2014 and have completed 4 (Rome, Florence and Stockholm twice), after an almost 2 year hiatus from running I am now training for two marathons next year, Stockholm and Helsingborg. FITLY is perfect for all runs between 1-2 hours, when you just need some water and somewhere to keep your phone, keys, lip balm etc. It sits perfectly, doesn't bounce AT ALL and doesn't restrict my movements in any way. I am very happy with it!” . Not sure if it’s the active lifestyle or the sweet Nordic air but you look awesomely fit dear @annikablyckertz Keep it up!!!

Day 3:

ACCOMPLISHMENTS:

Went for a run, did my laundry, swept and mopped the floor, made supper, went grocery shopping, took my dog for a walk, worked on my vision board. Everything on my list yesterday was completed!

FEELING:

I feel tired today, but a little bit more motivated than yesterday. I do also work today (I work at a freight railway so I’m considered essential), so I’m trying to stay focused on getting what I need to do today done before I need to head off to work, so I’m a sense I guess I’m also feeling a bit rushed.

RESTRAINTS:

I don’t think I really have any today, but the fact that I work and have to leave in 3.5 hours makes me nervous that I won’t be able to get everything I need to do done.

MOTIVATION:

Okay so I know I’ve said this already, but my 5K Runner App is truly a godsend. I have used it the past 2 days now, and I love how progressive it is. Also, after I’ve been running, my mood has changed for the better. I’m happier, more positive, and it honestly has changed my perspective and outlook for the day. I also have noticed that by running the past 2 days, my motivation has improved. Now I’m not going to fully say it’s all because of my running, but I would like to think that it has helped!

OUTLOOK:

I’m currently eating my breakfast (I got out of bed at 10:30), and then I’m going to finish folding my laundry and I’m gonna go for my run. Because my running is slowed down right now and it’s not constant, I am contemplating taking my dog with me. Today’s run consists of 1 min runs 8 times, with 1.5 min walks in between, so I think my dog can handle that with me.. We will see how it goes!

QUOTE OF THE DAY:

As a side note, which has been really helpful with inspiring me and keeping me motivated, the 5k runner app comes with daily quotes that are inspiring and motivating. I’ve used them in my blog twice now, but so far, the quote’s they’ve provided me every day relate so much to how my day is going and/or how I’m feeling. It’s weird, but I like it!

“Reality always begins with a dream. Make reality happen!” ~ Unknown

PERSONAL:

Okay! So I felt really great going to bed yesterday because I got everything done on my list that I wanted to yesterday! While I didn’t finish my vision board like I wanted to, I did add some more things to it. I still am trying to find a few photos that I can use for it before I completely finish it so, just working on it is an accomplishment in itself. Im excited to see how this week will turn out. Afternoon shifts can get a bit sketchy and screw with my body clock and sleeping schedule, so some days I’m left completely exhausted. My start time on afternoon shifts can adjust anywhere from a 3:30 PM start time to a 8:00 PM start time, so I’m hoping that my start time stays consistent this week, and I can continue to stay motivated and not super tired.

Is there anyone else out there that can relate to shift work/adjusted start times? How do you balance your personal life with your work schedule in order to keep you motivated and not dragging your feet?

Stay healthy.

went out today planning to do an easy 2.5-3 miler (if my body would even let me lol), around halfway I realized that if I picked my pace up a bit I could possibly run a sub-30 which I haven’t done in 6 years......and I ran a 28:45!!! and I felt good! and I’m excited for my running this year!!!

My Next 5k

Zombies, Run! Halloween VR is coming up! And the training for the 5k is about to commence! So much to do these next couple of weeks. I will make time to train for this race. I want to run most if not all of it. With the right mindset and consistency i will be able to do just that. I am going to register for it at the end of the month!

I am so excited!

Tempo workout to become a faster 5k runner

15 minutes warm up at “recovery pace”

recovery pace can be described as ‘conversational pace’; faster than a jog but you should be able to keep up a conversation during the run without struggle

about 60-90 seconds slower than your race pace

THE WORKOUT:

one minute on, one minute off

start with one minute at “tempo pace” or faster. this should feel instense but not quite as fast as your race pace. it’s been a while since i’ve done a 5k since i was injured in my last XC season, but my fastest 5k pace was a little under 7 minutes/mile and my average TEMPO pace during this workout was 6:30ish

run at recovery pace for one minute

keep switching ‘on and off’ between these paces with one minute of each. i did this 8x (each).

15 minutes cool down at recovery pace

Hope someone finds this helpful (:

High tide so couldn’t run on beach, took to road and busted out a 5k. Hot and tired but feel great.
