Training for week 18/6 - 24/6

So my “training” for the past week (18/6 to 24/6) has gone well. I’m increasing the distance and time run slowly, and had my longest run yet on Saturday morning. It’s taking me 15 minutes just to get enjoying a run, so I’m only starting to really enjoy my runs now. Even if they are only on a treadmill.

Date Goal Time Dist (km) Avg HR
Mon 18/6 15 min 15:00 2.5 134
Wed 20/6 15 min 15:00 2.5 136
Fri 22/6 20min 20:00 3.3 136
Sat 23/6 25 min 25:00 3.34 137
Totals 75 Min 75:00 12.5km

 

I also started to leave my ankle brace at home, as was told my ankle is stable enough, and the treadmill is a very safe environment for me to run. It’s difficult to turn an ankle over on the treadmill. I also had a nice cycle on Friday evening. Nothing too hectic, just some fresh air.

Overall, I’m happy with my progress, although I can’t wait until I’m able to do a long run, or even some speed work.
