Race For Life Training // Day 1

After yesterday's post, today I really wanted to push myself. So, I got up, had breakfast, finished an episode of Sex and The City and got changed into running clothes. Yes everyone, I did it, I went outside in the real world, and ran. I'm not going to lie and say it was amazing and I've never felt better... It was awful, I was out of breath so easily, I was warm, sweaty, red-faced and it was so windy. Today I realised the huge difference between a run indoors and outdoors. Wow. How do you runners do this?

I don't know why but I thought it would be a breeze (it was literally blowing a gale). I could not run the whole way and switched from a fast walk to a jog/run... I don't even know if that's good. I used the Nike Running app to track it and my aim was to run for 20 minutes, here are my stats:

Pre-run, I did Run Ready Yoga from the Nike Training Club app. I don't really love the app but the yoga is great for stretching. For the first day, I wanted to keep it simple, but oh my word, it was difficult. I'm now delving through my Lush products and am getting ready to slip into a bath before work.

I now have to think of sponsorship ideas, if you have any, please feel free to share below in the comments.
