HILLS! 🥴

A good week this week (although last time I said that my ankle went again!) This time I’ve been doing my exercises religiously and I’ve been concentrating on my running form (i.e. staying upright and not sagging like a sack of spuds when I get tired). I’ve also been really thinking about not over striding and keeping my knee over my ankle instead of landing with my ankle ahead. Who knew running was so mentally taxing?!

I do think it’s been helping though as I’ve been running with NO TAPE 😱 for the first time in years!! I still have the knee bands on but you never know…give it a few months or so and I might start to give it a go!

Back to today’s run which was 10.5km and a route suggested by David 😍. He came with me on his bike which I loved! A beast of a hill (both up and down) but I did it and felt good! Apparently David forgot about a couple more hills on the way back…hmmm! Pace is slower but I think it needed to be. (I’ve been doing a lot of reading about slower runs being more beneficial when training – I’m all for that!)
