Ok so I'm not a keen long distance runner. Since starting my weight training journey 6 years ago I've grown to hate distance running more each time I do it π So I figured I need to give myself a kick up the a and get on with it.
I can run a decent 5k but anytime I try further than that I fight with my own mind telling myself I can't do it.
I was about to join a running group before the world got introduced to Covid-19 π’ so my second best option is to be accountable by joining this group.
I plan on fitting in 2/3 runs per week and will continue with my 4/5 weight training sessions.
If you don't see me posting on here, it's because I've failed so please hound me!!
For my first month I think 60 would be achievable. I've worked out even if I did the 5k x 3 per week I'd be winning so π I'm starting small in the hope that I'll smash it and set a harder goal next month and stick to it.
Apologies for the essay post, just wanted to get it all out being a newbie π
