Decided to put the "down" mood behind me and revisit the training regime.
The nhs couch to 5k is too taxing right now - and my own one is getting easier by the day. Therefore I have met in the middle. My own one was 2.5 mins w/u then 5x0.5 mins running and 5x1.5 mins walking, with 2.5 mins warm down, making 15 minutes in total. The NHS one was 5 minutes warm up then 8x1 min running and 8 x 1.5 min walking, with 5 mins warm down. SO I've went for a bit of a hybrid of
5 mins w/u
8 x 0.5 mins running
8 x 1.5 mins walking
5 mins w/d
making 26 minutes in total. Tried it tonight and felt magic. Will try to do this every 2 days this week, so Tues/Thurs/ Sat/ Mon. Then revisit it next week on Wednesday.
And of course I'm that bloody dense just now that I've forgot today is Wednesday - so that'll be Wed Friday Sunday Tuesday and review on Thursday :-)
