5k Recovery Run - Fairly Sunny - 27m 31s
Posted on Sep 27, 2008 under 5k, Easy Runs, Jogs, Recovery Runs |I’ve had 8 rest days out of the last 9 days, and the only run out of that was my PB race - so I figured it was high time I got back out on the road before I lost my motivation altogether, as it would be all to easy to sink into lazy habits!
Planned a 5k jog around random streets. It felt a bit cold to start with but soon warmed up and the sun seemed to be beating down. Pace was nothing special but legs were feeling a bit heavy. This was my first run of my “off” season - I have no races planned, and the next 10k (my preferred race distance at the mo) looks like being not until next year. It was a bit strange running without the motivation of an upcoming race and the possibility of a PB - so just made sure I completed 5k, and think I will need another few recovery runs like this back to back just to get back into the swing of things, before I start attempting time trials and hill work and long runs again
