I really felt like running today. It's strange how some days I have to talk myself into training, and other days I can't wait to get my shoes on. I found W4D1 (Monday) REALLY challenging. I felt like I struggled through the second 5 min run. Then, today I felt so strong all the way through, I felt really good about my run. I felt like my form was good and I breathed well. I think I even covered a bit further distance today.
I've been thinking about what I'd like to do when I complete the C25K because I've heard that once the motivation of ticking off the weekly runs is gone a lot of people stop running. I really want running to be a permanent part of my life so I need to plan for life after C25K. I'd like to run the Mother's Day Classic this year, it's on Mother's Day (10 May in Australia) and there is a 4k or 8k option. I think I'll set a conservative goal and plan to run the 4k. Although with the time I have before the race I could almost be ready for 8k. I think? I can't believe I'm considering running 8k!
