Update: My Running Routine!

This week was super relaxed for me. My instructor told me I had to relax and let my muscles rest in order to be ready for my first 5K.

So, this week I did the following routine:

• Monday: 5 minutes walking fast, followed by 5 repetitions of 2 minutes running + 1 walking fast.
• Tuesday: 5 minutes walking fast, 10 minutes of running.
• Wednesday: rest!
• Thursday: 5 minutes walking fast, followed by 5 repetitions of 2 minutes running + 1 walking fast.
• Friday: 5 minutes walking fast, 10 minutes of running.
• Saturday: rest!
• Sunday: 5 minutes walking fast, 10 minutes of running.

Yes!! That's right: running! I'm actually running and so is my mum. In 2 months we've gone from walking to running, isn't it exciting?! This goes to show you that when you have a goal and you put your heart into it, chances are you'll reach it!

It hasn't been easy, I still have to monitor my heart rate and I do get tired when running, but I'm doing it! My mum has also started running when she thought she would never be able to do it. It's a great feeling and I'm happy to be sharing it with you! Have a nice Sunday!

See you soon,

Ren =)
