Back into running today. Todays programme called for 5 mins warm-up followed by 10 mins running, 3 mins walking and 10 mins running, then 5 mins warm-down. I completed this at 4.6km/hr, on track to slowly increasing the speed each week, till I'm running at 5km/hr, which is my goal. I felt a bit sluggish running today and I really had to encourage myself to keep going. I would imagine this is a direct result of the pie I consumed last night, but I couldn't help it, it was a Jimmy's pie, a legend I grew up with and I haven't had one for 6 or 7 years, maybe longer! The pie was amazing, but clearly had an impact on my body as I'd put weight on since yesterday too, not much, but a good lesson to keep on track with what I'm doing food and exercise wise.

I kept walking for another 30 mins to make a total of an hours exercise. I do think I need the hour to make a difference. 

I'm feeling positive and focussed, part of keeping myself going today was envisioning myself finishing the colour run so it's a great motivator :)
