Week 8. What I’ve learned so far.

[Nathan]

I managed to run 30 minutes today for the first time and it felt great. FWIW, here’s what I’ve learned so far:

1. Some days seem harder than others for no reason. Just accept it.
2. If you get to the end of a run and you feel like you can go a bit further, go for it but stop before you feel wrecked. 
3. Eat a piece of fruit half an hour before you go. 
4. Leave at least 1 day between runs.
5. Don’t neglect stretching before and after each run. 
6. Knee guards actually make a difference. 
7. And here is the big one. When you get to the runs without walks, you have to change your mindset. Before you take off, picture yourself running to the end without the breaks. 
Enjoy!
