I cannot wait to have mine!
That's a regular thing you guys have?
Very difficult to move my legs forward today. Lower calfs were tight. Had to stretch a lot. Didn't feel fit at all: lots of walk breaks. Guess I should've had a proper dinner yesterday. But I did finish the whole 5.8 kilometers of it.
DutchieRun the day, or the day runs you.
The recommendation is to have a screening exam once you turn 50.
I'm still putting it off though. It's expensive. DH had it a few years ago and his share of cost was about $800. I can't afford that right now.
Don't make excuses for why you can't get it done.
Focus on all the reasons why you must make it happen.
I've been feeling a bit tired this week - lots of work for a presentation next Tuesday - and then I looked at my calender and I've done some type of workout every day for 2 weeks. Yesterday, I did run intervals on the treadmill 5X 3 minutes at 9 m/m pace with some warming up and cooling down.
So I'm taking a rest day and "letting" the husband make dinner. Tomorrow and Sunday - some easy 1 hour runs.

Getting back in shape... Just need it to be a skinnier shape...
Kelly: good on you. Nothing wrong with running slow. Might even be good for you
Today I took the doggies out for a 5.9 kilometer easy run. I picked an out and back route. Spike was on his best behaviour on the way out, but as soon as I turned round at mid point, he decided it was time for a lot of sniffing and digging and running away. Today was meant to be an easy run, but the second half definitely turned into a doggie run. I was so annoyed after having to go and fetch him that I put him on leash.
I added on a 47 minute slow&heavy triceps and biceps w/o (2/6 count with 1 minute rests inbetween sets). And ofcourse a 10 min ab w/o partly with light weights.
Have a great day and a most excellent run.
Fantastic run this morning. Felt "easy". I was faster than I was last week. So that's good, and my legs didn't feel tired at all. I had the usual breaks for the leash and for letting Spooky splash around in the streams 4x, taking the opportunity to have a sip of water myself each time. I did an out&back route again. Easier when you run by time, and not distance.
1st half = 1:01:04 / 7:14 pace = 8.46 kilometers
Ran a hilly 4.5 this morning...
Hopeful to be able to get a bit aggressive this week... we'll see... Still being really cautious... Running slow beats not running right now...
