looking down at Jayne’s feet in running shoes.
Back on the couch-to-5km wagon. I’ve done it before so I know it’s possible… but right now feels like climbing Everest. Still, good for my ticker and my head, so on we go. This is a repeat of week 2 day 3… getting in some extra steps before next week with the slow-ladies-running-crew !
#C25K
Sonic Bluetooth earbud case has expressions you can change by rotating the chamber. He looks surprised 😮
Brunette millennial takes diagonal selfie in front of a fountain made to look like horses on a carousel. One is decorated with mosaic. The pole thingies have water flowing through them.
It was a hard run according to Apple. I don’t actually know enough about running to explain this stuff but I’m not really worried about ALL the data, my average pace was 10’41”/KM and I went 3.57KM. 2.87KM was running, the rest walking for warm up and cool down, each 5 minutes.
This was rough but I’m glad I didn’t give up. Sonic is emoting for me. I took an additional 15 minute walk after this hoping to get my heart rate down closer to 100 but it stayed near 150 until I sat in my car a while lol now to go home and shower!!!!!!!!

First #run after finishing #C25k. I'm still far from 5k, but I can manage 30 min, which is like a miracle, after getting started from less than zero due to my dysthemia. 💫
Today, I managed pacing under 10min. for the very first time. Yay!

Screenshot from the Just Run app, the text says "Zero to 5K workout finished. Week 9 Day 1. Running time 30 minutes, total time 40 minutes". There is a purple button that says "I did it!"
1 run down, 2 more to go! I am using "Just Run", by @jupli.com and I am almost ready to move on from 5K (or 30 minutes continuous runs), to the 10K / 1 hour program. This app is free, has no trackers and no ads, and it isbrilliant! I absolutely recommend it!🏃♀️➡️ #running #c25k #fitafter40

I finished #C25K today! Next is to keep building so I can actually run 5km 😂

Much like Kate Bush I was running up many hills tonight and feeling every one. At least that's day 2 of week 3 done in my #couch25k 🏃♂️
#c25k #running #fitness
Going for a stupid run for my stupid mental health.
Starting week 3 of my couch 2 5k program.

Good morning folks. Week 6 of #C25k and so far so good. Birds are singing their hearts out and crocuses putting on a welcome show
Screenshot from the Zero to 5 K app: week 8 day 1 finished - running time 28:00, total time 38:00 minutes
After 10 days of an involuntary running break due to the weather, I finally got back on the track today. So surprised that I was able to do 28 as planned. Getting old and being overweight doesn't stop me from this, who would've thought. (Not me)

Just finished W7D3 of #C25K
Taking kiddo to his first #ASD assessment interview.
Giving the deck a 2nd coat of stain.
Catching up on chores.
Napping later.
I'm tired.
W7D2 of #C25K.
Many hours applying stain to our 2 outdoor decks.
Walking to & from my son's school.
But the highlight for me was hearing 20-odd year old complain about "old people" crowding her favourite cafe. And then defining old people as those over 50. I'm 51.
I'm tired & old.
Me after a run in running gear with a wet suburban street behind me. There's a grey sky but also the sun is kinda causing a halo thing behind my head? Unintentional yet still blasphemous.
Finally finished week 7 of #C25K! Also on today's run I didn't nearly KO a small child or nearly get run over, like the first and second run this week, respectively, so even more win.
Good morning folks. Bit cold n gloomy out in the park today, and Achilles n knee feeling sore, but that’s week 4 of #C25K done 🥳
First day of school for my kiddo today.
We got in our #C25K run.
Today is also my first day alone for the year. And the chorelist is a bit depressing.
But no one else will clean the shower or toilets..
Good morning folks. It’s been a very wet n windy start to week 4 of #C25K but still glad to be back to running
A highly respectable 30oC+ #PublicHoliday here.
#Exercise done. #C25K W6D1.
Walking with an assortment of salty & sweet indulgences.
Will water garden. Have a shower. Then try to split my day between housework, #D&D & #StardewValley.
And a nap... #Balance
#C25K today W5D3.
Slow going as I was encouraging kiddo to push on but in the end 20min was done.
Gotta look at adding swim laps to my week to balance this out.
But I *refuse* to become a triathlete. Being a partner/supporter to one is enough...
#triathlon #fitness #swimming #health #parenting
Good morning folks. Yet again it’s a damp n gloomy start in the park, but that’s week 3 of #C25K done 🥳
C25K complete… does that make a runner now?

Screenshot of my workout app from yesterday: 3,11 km run, 38 min, pace 12:23
I'm as slow as a snail. But this is SO much more than I ever thought I could do. So I look at the grannies with their walkers, passing by me - and I grin happily about my achievement.
( #c25k w6/d2, so the stats include quite a bit of #walking)

A step further towards being able to run 5k all in one go. I did 4k just now and...didn't hate it. My biggest blockers to running have been twofold; long-term Achilles tendon issues. And that I can't stand it.
I seem to have fixed both these things. We will see... #C25k
Good morning folks. Week 2 of #C25K and I’m still enjoying trying to get back to feeling healthier. Just need Achilles to hold up
Pink running shoes in black rubber snow spike thingies.
This might be worth a try.
What do you think?
