Took off this morning on my long jog, was feeling fine for first 2.5k's heart rate was sitting pretty body was feeling good and strong. Then the old heart rate decided it wasn't going to play forcing me to slow my pace in order to stay in the required heart zone. It's only the first week so I'm trying not to be disappointed. It's quite hard to pace yourself when your body wants to go faster but your heart is saying nope stay here. So 1.5 hrs later I'd only managed to cover 10k's.
I've been told by 2 reliable sources that I shouldn't worry as that is Zone training and it's only my first week. I will hopefully see some improvements in my heart rate in 2-3 weeks. Here's hoping.
It's the end of my weekend after my first week back at work after 2 weeks holidays. I'm feeling the pinch of my new training and work routines. Feeling just a little tired but it only takes 28 days to form a routine.
Well if all goes to plan in 3 months I'll have run my first half and have a good idea as to how far i want to take it!
