W2r1: got tangled up with park run

Post by abbyzeeble »

Meeting the park run crew 3 times during my w2r1 run wasn't the best experience ever for a beetroot-faced novice! But I completed my run without cheating even though I timed it so I was going uphill on some runs!

I missed out the 2nd of the 2 rest days; is anyone else doing that?

Good on you for keeping on going with your run ;). Regarding the rest days I tend to run every other day (so I don't take the two day break), seems to be enough recovery time for me and I like to think I have a two day break up my sleeve to use when ever I want to (or need it!). That said, I started the programme with a good level of base fitness which I am sure has helped me along, I guess the key is to just keep listening to your body.
