Chelles Running Blog

Little Pom who met an Aussie eight years ago and moved over here to be with him. Love Brisbane and all it has to offer, not sure if I would have been as keen about getting up at 5am during the English winter for a run!

Still here...

I'm still here, still running and have got in to a nice routine, which goes something like;

Monday - gym, usually a 30minute run, 15minute weights and 15min stretching / floor work
Tuesday - run from home, currently I am just doing 4km, but that will become 5km next week and includes a few reps running up and down a footbridge that goes over the highway.
Wednesday - gym, Body Attack cardio class
Thursday - as per Tuesday, or if I'm feeling a bit tired maybe just a jog around the park.
Friday - gym, usually 20mins x-trainer, 10mins rowing, 10mins weights and 20minutes stretching / floor work
Saturday or Sunday - long run (which isnt very long at the moment!)

Quite happy with progress and am enjoying the nice warm and light weather, even if the 94% humidity and fine drizzle did leave me wanting to jump in the pool this morning! I'm also not pushing myself too hard, if I'm feeling a bit under the weather, or when the storms hit last week, I'm not forcing myself out for the sake of it, seems to be working for me at the moment, a bit less pressure really.

Last Sunday, MJ, Matt and I watched Spirit of the Marathon which was an interesting movie and has added a bit more motivation for me to commit to getting back to running properly in the new year....!
