Week 1, Run 1: What do you do when the days are too warm? Run at midnight. Longer time/distance, better speed. The beginnings of progress. #tryingtobelessofafatlump #running #makeAidangreatagain #zombiesrun5ktraining #zombiesrun #latenight #midnightrun #whyisitsowarm https://www.instagram.com/p/B0UYCJ3BS0J/?igshid=twii9sn652k1

4 Goals for 2019: 1 - Good things with great people. ✅ 2 - Levi's ✅ 4 - Exceed my own (admittedly fucking low) expectations. Number 3 was to get my running pace below 9:36/km. This was my first run since January. Only my 2nd of the year. 9:31. ✅ Maybe I should start expecting a little more of myself...? #tryingtobelessofafatlump #makeAidangreatagain #zombiesrun5ktraining #zombiesrun #belief #betterstrongerfaster https://www.instagram.com/p/B0MUf6-Bv94/?igshid=ui0jwyyre1u0

When seeing your mate @megan.sw.brooke smashing her couch to 5k runs inspires you... starting again fucking hurts, but it's done now. Let's try not to make this another restart that fizzles out! #makeAidangreatagain #couchto5k #zombiesrun #zombiesrun5ktraining #tryingtobelessofafatlump #running #fitness #knackered

Today's run was a shorter distance (and a slightly slower pace), but was by far the hardest one so far. Twice as much running, same walking gaps, heel lift stretches in between - my legs are on fire. Completed the session though - just gonna have to shamble home from here! Ha. #5ktraining #running #zombiesrun5ktraining #makeaidangreat #makinganeffort #tryingtobelessofafatlump #fitness #health #exercise #smashingit #smashing2018

I need to add two things to my usual dull commentary on these pictures today: firstly, I do apologise for posting stupid, self-congratulating pictures all the time - I know it's not interesting, but it helps me keep track of myself, and with the motivational issues I've been having, I need all of the little bits of help I can get. Secondly, I have not been doing as well as I had hoped in January, which I think is what got to me last week (thank you for those of you who worried, it means the world) and left me with lacking self-confidence. I've got some ideas on how to help with this in February, so we'll see how I do! Third run/walk of the year today, and another slight increase in pace. Going to stay on this "mission" for this week though, as I've been sporadic thus far. Can't wait until I can drop under 10 mins/km! Today is also the first day where I've done everything I set out to do, so I'm feeling proud of myself. Onwards and upwards from here! #5ktraining #running #zombiesrun5ktraining #makeaidangreat #tryingtobelessofafatlump #fitness #health #exercise #smashingit #smashing2018

Had to go back and do Week 4 Workout 3 since I skipped it on accident. Way more fast walking than running today, but still did 5k! With the way I was feeling, I'm marking this as a success. 🏃🏼‍♀️ #zombiesrun #runner5 #raisethegates #coveringfire #abeltownship #Iamrunner5 #runnersofabel #runforyourlife #applewatch2 #appleactivity #treadmill #slowlybutsurely #zombiesrun5ktraining

Week 4 Workout 2 - 2.5 Miles // Ran for another 5 mins straight, twice! 🏃🏼‍♀️ #zombiesrun #runner5 #raisethegates #coveringfire #abeltownship #Iamrunner5 #runnersofabel #runforyourlife #applewatch2 #appleactivity #treadmill #slowlybutsurely #zombiesrun5ktraining

Did 5k in 51 mins with walk run drills. But ran the first run section for 5 mins straight! And then in the 15 mins free form at the end I ran for another 5 straight then walked some and ran another 3 mins straight! 🏃‍♀️ #zombiesrun #runner5 #raisethegates #coveringfire #abeltownship #Iamrunner5 #runnersofabel #runforyourlife #applewatch2 #appleactivity #treadmill #slowlybutsurely #zombiesrun5ktraining
