i’ve updated my school blog if anyone wants to take a look!
5 miles, 22.29, 8.29m/m ave pace
8.30, 8.27, 8.30, 8.31, 8.25
Even pacing or what! Much happier with this today although it was hard work! Kept wanting to give up and go slower but managed to pick it up again every time. I know I could not keep this up for 13 miles though and even if I did I would only take 1min off my pb!
Resting tomorrow, easy run Friday, rest Saturday and the half-marathon on Sunday. Feeling much better about getting back into running now, so hope I don’t get too down if I get a poor time on Sunday.
I was really worrried about eating too much in my new job as there it seemed like there would always be sweets and biscuits in the room so I have not touched anything at work, as it is easier not to start! However I have been feeling so sorry for myself I have been pigging out something rotten at home. In an attempt to stop this I am going to record my food intake on here for a few days; feel free not to pay any attention but hopefully it will shame me into curtailing things!
Wednesday:
salad with homemade honey and mustard dressing
apple
banana
couple of handfuls of cheerios
salmon and veg stir fry with noodles and sweet chilli sauce
Now hopefully I can manage not to pick at anything else tonight – I am not hungry, it would be pure greed!
I did not manage not to eat again and had two pieces of toast and butter. I don’t usually have butter in the house at all but this was in the freezer and I actually defrosted it.
Thursday 4th September
