It’s starting to get to the stage where I’m beginning to worry about what I’m going to write about once I’ve finished the Couch to 5k plan. I’ve posted a lot about it, in large part because I think that writing about it will help keep me doing it. Not that I’m even sure anything is needed on that front any more - I’m enjoying it now. There are only a few short weeks left - only another eleven runs with corresponding posts.
Today was the first run/walk of week 6. Just one more run/walk left, then it’s all running. No more walking. Drat. Walking is the easy bit. And despite the fact that today’s run appeared, on the face of it, as thought it would be easier than the second and third run of week 5, in fact I found it tougher. Thinking about it, it might have been due to the stag party I attended on Saturday.
Plans for after the Couch to 5k plan are now starting to come together. I’m going to keep running, and aim to increase the distances over time. There are plenty of half marathons next year, with the first in Brighton in February. That might be too soon, but I’ve got half an eye on it and will see how things go.
