At the beginning of the year a typical run for me would be around 5 km, now however with more and more practise I have managed to push it up to 7km. I train about 3 times a week, twice by myself after school and once one friday afternoons with Melanie and Ms.Myanger.
I must admit at times i have struggled to find the energy to go for a run after school however I have showed much perservence and committment by sticking with my thrice weekly training sessions. What has really helped me is encouragement from my running partners Melanie and Ms. Myanger and having the 10 km goal. Often I find if you don't have a specific target it can be difficult to stick with the activity.
Therefore I think training for the 10km has been pretty successful so far, I
have always enjoyed running so I think that helps a fair bit. My Friday workout is definatley my favourite. It usually consists of some warming up, cardio and then
strength training. It definitely helps to train with a group as this helps keep
me motivated especially as it often is the last thing I want to do on a Friday
afternoon after a long week. Ms.Myanger is a great trainer and I am so glad she
can make the time to join us as she’s such a help.
Hopefully after
this October break I can fit in more time for my running. In the up coming
weeks I am going to try to focus on my breathing as this is the key problem for
me when running distances.
Here are some photos we took during our Friday workout:
