Training Update

Over the Christmas and New Year break I’ve been down at my parent’s house. It is so beautiful down here and I’ve found it a lot easier to go for runs and walks, considering this is my view….

I’m still struggling with my running and realised yesterday that it is at the one  kilometre mark that my knee kicks in and starts hurting like crazy. I managed to do 3km in 24min with a lot of jogging and walking in between but am hoping to work up to longer, faster runs. Nike+GPS is a great app that I invested in once I decided to sign up for Tough Mudder. It tracks the route that you run and the pace as well as your time and distance and shows it all on a map and in a table form. I play music while running the app too and there’s an automated voiceover that updates you at ever kilometre with your distance, pace and time. Such a good resource to keep track and keep motivated to beat past times/distances.
