A bit of accountability

I started well on Run and Burn. Did a few good weeks back-to-back. And then there was a heatwave. And I had a holiday. And I got out of the habit. And so I ended up having a week for a couple of weeks. Frustrating because I was so enthused at the beginning. But it happens. Never mind. Move on.

So today I did some interval running as part of my coach week. I got almost the whole way through (had done 3x 200m and 1x 1.5km) when I accidentally cancelled the workout while fiddling with my phone on a break. So I ended up doing the final two 400m ‘manually’, and inputting the whole thing in to the app with a guess at roughly how long it took.

Anyway, it was good to get out again. I do actually really like running – especially at the beginning or end of the day. It helps clear my head.

So this post is a bit of accountability. I read someone somewhere say that you should never miss more than one workout. And someone else said never go more than one day without exercising. As that’s when you slip. So I’m trying to do that. Not more than one day off. So that means four days training a week. Which feels manageable.

Let’s see how I get on…
