A mile a day in May

54 replies

DevilsAdvocaat · 01/05/2017 08:29

I'm going to try and run (at least) a mile a day in May!

I've done C25K previously and can just about still run 5k (on a very good day with the wind behind me). I fancy a new challenge and I think this will be manageable with my hectic life!

Anyone want to join me? Smile

I didn't manage to peek myself out out bed this morning, even though I woke up at 5!

So I had to do my run after I'd been to the pub for dinner with a large glass of wine Confused

I did it though!!

Bleugh...Envy

How are you getting on Devils? Always fancied a run streak, but I can't face washing/drying my hair everyday Blush

Keep peeling!

I have done over a mile every day except one (which was a deliberate rest day).

I was considering whether to run today, but have got a walk planned. I suppose I could do both

Ah I see! A chancer!

Well, I'm sticking to this so far

Off on a bike ride today with the other half but will still run later

Challenging myself to work my way through my massive pile of sportswear, wearing everything at least once and binning the old stuff

1st of June and I'll be buying new workout gear I hope!Grin

A lot of primary schools do a mile day (walking or running) after assembly or after lunch. That's kids between 4 and 11 yo.

Can you build a brisk walk somewhere into Friday? Call it your weekly rest day, but cover the a different pace?

DevilsAdvocaat · 03/05/2017 07:07

I think I can do it!
The only day I'm worried about is Friday as the call to the pub after work is so strong!

Can't face running first thing tho. I just get too dizzy!

Not regular days at the moment.

But I ran on Monday, and did a long walk yesterday, so covering the ground

MumIsRunningAMarathon · 02/05/2017 20:29
